Hello!

im making a new update for AdvLock... and im trying to prevent editing startup files or boot files... but
would i be able to NOT prevent the way of "running" the files? like

right now when i type "edit startup" it says:
edit:50: AdvLock: You do not have access to edit this file!

but when i type in "startup" this is happening, too ( which i dont want)
edit:50: AdvLock: You do not have access to edit this file

could someone tell me how to check if the only argument for opening a file is "read" or if its "run"


Thanks in Advance.

code:

Pastebin:

function securePaths()
	del = 0
	local lockedFiles = {"startup"}
	local oldFsDelete = fs.delete
	fs.delete = function(...)
		local tArg = {...}
		

		if not fs.isLocked then
			return oldFsDelete(unpack(tArg))
		end
		for lockedFile = 1, #lockedFiles do
			if string.lower(tArg[1]) == string.lower(lockedFiles[lockedFile]) and not fs.isDir(tArg[1]) then
				error("AdvLock: You do not have access to delete this file!", 3)
			elseif string.lower(tArg[1]) == string.lower(lockedFiles[lockedFile]) and fs.isDir(tArg[1]) then	
				error("AdvLock: You do not have access to delete this folder!", 3)
			else
				del = del + 1
			end	
		end
		if del == #lockedFiles then
			del = 0
			return oldFsDelete(unpack(tArg))
		end	
	end
	del = 0
	local oldFsOpen = fs.open
	fs.open = function(...)
		local tArg = {...}
		

		if not fs.isLocked then
			return oldFsOpen(unpack(tArg))
		end
		for lockedFile = 1, #lockedFiles do
			if string.lower(tArg[1]) == string.lower(lockedFiles[lockedFile]) and not fs.isDir(tArg[1]) then
				error("AdvLock: You do not have access to edit this file!", 3)
			elseif string.lower(tArg[1]) == string.lower(lockedFiles[lockedFile]) and fs.isDir(tArg[1]) then	
				error("AdvLock: You do not have access to edit this folder!", 3)
			else
				del = del + 1
			end	
		end
		if del == #lockedFiles then
			del = 0
			return oldFsOpen(unpack(tArg))
		end	
	end
end

I've not read your code, so I don't know if you read the terminal commands, but if you do:

[code]
local blockedFiles = {"startup", "reboot"} --reboot is used as example so you can block more than one file from being edited.
for _, v in ipairs(blockedFiles) do
if input:find("edit "..v) then
print("You can't modify the "..v.." file!")
end
end

I would suggest to changing the function override for fs.open so that if they are attempting to read it, it's allowed, but writing and deleting is denied

fs.open = function(path, mode)
  if mode == 'r' then
    -- allow open, they are trying to read it
  else
    -- reject
  end
end

end

But that means you can't modify any kind of file?

Well keeping OP original logic in there, no, it will allow it if it's not locked. the code I suggested is just some additional logic that would allow the program to be run, but not edited, if it is locked.
