Kiosk Mode in Windows

There are several methods to set a browser into "kiosk mode" in Windows. One method is to use the "assigned access" feature of Windows. To set this up, do the following:

  1. Open the Settings app, then go to "Accounts > Family and other users".

  2. Select "Set up a kiosk > Assigned access", and then select Get started.

  3. Enter a name for the new account.

    Note: If there are any local standard user accounts on the device already, the Create an account page will offer the option to Choose an existing account.

  4. Choose "Microsoft Edge" as the app that will run when the kiosk account signs in.

  5. Select the "As a digital sign or interactive display" option.

  6. Enter the auto-login URL given by Green Security as the URL to be displayed when the kiosk account signs in.

  7. Select "1 hour" for when Microsoft Edge should restart after a period of inactivity.

  8. Select Close.
