Keylogger is used to capture the key strokes and mostly used to steal passwords. I didn't really understand your question.

Ok lovejeet tell us what really is your question, you want to use keylogger on your personal computer, first of all give us a logical reason why you really need a keylogger. Using keylogger is usually considered as illegal, if caught and punished according to cyber security laws, you'll be inside jail with non-bailable warrent for three years. Please make us sure why you really need a keylogger.

No issues. Now you know. It's got nothing to do with 'securing' your PC. If you suspect that your PC is being misused, you may install a keylogger. However, that'd be the last step. The first recommended step is that you should change your password and make it VERY HARD to guess.

Also be aware of the keyloggers installed in Cyber Cafes. Lot of people got their account hacked after they logged in from a cyber cafe.

using keyloggers is not at all illegal. keyloggers are officially sold, how do you think they do that then ?
keylogging is not illegal, but stealing and misusing passwords is. there's a difference in those.

keyloggers can be a useful ware for parents keeping a tab on their children's activities and are mostly used for that purpose.
there are various popular ones I have seen officially sold for windows and mac.

if you go after some petty keylogger, there's a high chance that it was not programmed well or that it has some code in it which will compromise your security as well.
its always a risk using a keylogger and most antiviruses will detect those as a potential malware.

you may try out lightlogger. its free and quite simple to use too. many avs wont detect it as harmful but some of them may. use it at your own risk.

Hi Lovejeet,
If you want to monitor your system in your absence then there is no use of Keylogger there,Keylogger is used to track the information from any system and it is a malicious program.If you want that no one should use your computer in your absence then you can set a administrative password for the whole system from the BIOS settings.

So many replies are about whether it is illegal to use a keylogger while the topic is whether it is safe to use a keylogger. 😒
I don't think there is any harm in installing keylogger in a PC
