Quickest solutions

  • Run program virtualised from main CIS interface - this gives an option to add a Kiosk link
  • Type C:\ in browser and navigate to Program files folder and double click on executable. Program will run in browser context which may not be desirable.

Simple but good solution. Create a folder on you desktop called Kiosk links, and place in it:

  • Either: shortcuts to the executables of any program you want to run
  • Or: links to Program Files (x86) and Program Files

Best long term solution? (assuming Win7/8): make your own start menu

[ol]- Create a library, call it KioskStart

  • Add to the library the following folders:

[li]users ~ ~ start menu ~ programs

  • users ~ ~ start menu ~ programs
  • users ~ ~ start menu ~ programs
  • you may need to change security permissions on these folders to do this
    [/li]
  • right click in library and set group by=none, sort by = name.
  • make shortcut to library on desktop call it KioskStart[/ol]
