Hello,
I am attempting to create a Kiosk mode style build for a touchscreen all-in-one PC.
The requirement will be to severely lock the OS down to give minimal access to the OS whilst allowing the user (possibly joe public) access to a pre-defined list of websites.
The 'Assigned Access' looked to be a god-send as it can do this out of the box, but does not allow me to lock down the IE settings. Also with this only being available to local accounts, I cannot enforce IE restrictions with GPO's.
I would have fully intended of locking down the OS in the traditional manner (as I have done in the past with Win7) of GPO's. Unfortunately, there are no GPO options to disable the metro/start screen. Disableing the start menu was easy as pi on Win7 but seemingly impossible for Win8.
I find this very frustrating as I want to go with the new technology but am not able to find an answer to this.
If anyone has any ideas or suggestions for this, please bear in mind that I will not be able to use 3rd party tools for this implementation, just GPO's, reg tweaks etc.
Kind Regards
Barry
