You don't protect files at application level. You protect at file system level. "The era of big government is over," said Clinton 1996

Jefro is right. The proper way to do this is to go to the notepad.exe -> right-click on it -> select security -> add administraor -> remove everyone. Now only the admin can use it. I do this when ever I need to setup a keyosc box and want to remove the ability to run CMD.exe and other programs.
