Our enterprise-level Windows 10 device management solution helps customers easily install the kiosk mode on their desktops, laptops, and tablets in order to seamlessly control the user experience and activities by enforcing application and browsing restriction.

    Windows 10 Kiosk Mode

    The outline behind adding the single-app kiosk mode as a new feature –

    Today we have launched one of the most sought-after features in our Windows 10 MDM platform – the single-app kiosk mode, which is applicable on all Windows 10 desktops and laptops. In 4 simple steps, this enables you:

    • To transform your desktop or laptop into a kiosk within minutes
    • Run one application all the time
    • Prevent access to other apps
    • Auto-launch the same app every time the device reboots

    For instance, imagine an ATM machine where a user can accomplish only a few specific tasks like checking account balance and withdrawing money, through guided directions. It doesn’t allow anybody to do anything else with the machine as there are no other options to click on or use. A Windows 10 single app kiosk mode works exactly like that. Windows 10 single-app kiosk runs one specific app on the desktop or laptop, wherein the user using the device cannot do any other task outside that app. This essentially prevents unwanted user access in terms of fiddling with the desktop, switching apps, or changing settings.

    We want to emphasize the fact that when we add a crucial feature to our solution or platform, we engage a whole lot of thought process behind it.

    This means seeking answers to some important customer-focused questions like –

    a) Why we add this new feature?
    b) Who is going to use the feature?
    c) How it will add value to our customers’ businesses?
    d) Which business sectors will it cater to?
