What's new

  • Freeze until a clock time: Choose a 24-hour time and see when the freeze will end. If that time has already passed today, FrostLock schedules it for tomorrow. The command line also supports --until HH:mm.
  • Extend a running freeze: Add five minutes from the lock screen or with Ctrl+Alt+E. The CLI supports --extend [duration]. Extensions are unavailable for indefinite, Hard, and USB-triggered freezes, and respect the safety cap and 24-hour limit.
  • Tray quick-freeze menu: Start a 5, 15, 30 or 60 minute freeze, or freeze until you unlock.

Improvements

  • The extend hotkey can be changed in Settings → Hotkeys. Strict mode detects it even when all keys are blocked, so extending does not depend on the taskbar or Task Manager.
  • The updater checks the installer against GitHub's published SHA-256 digest while downloading. A mismatch deletes the file and blocks installation; automatic installation is refused if the digest is missing or invalid. This check relies on GitHub's release metadata and is not a substitute for code signing.
  • Added the GPL-3.0 license and security reporting guidance.

Technical Changes

  • Version bumped to 1.4.0.
  • Added clock-time parsing and freeze extension support to the UI, hotkeys, and CLI.
  • The installer build now writes a .sha256 sidecar.
  • Added an automated test project; all 79 tests pass.
  • Rebuilt the framework-dependent win-x64 installer: FrostLock-Setup-1.4.0.exe (about 4 MB).
