there are a few ways to do it:
- (W10) Assigned Access - microsoft's solution to kiosk computers. You can make the app run on top of the lock screen, so users can use their one app without actually needing privileges on the computer.
- Software Restriction Policies - You can whitelist select applications or publishers and every other executable will fail to launch. requires enterprise licensing.
- Mandatory Profile - You log in to a temporary profile. All changes are lost when you log out.
- Deep Freeze - 3rd party variant of Mandatory Profile. Can be made to roll back the whole operating system to a given snapshot.
- Non-persistent VDI - You actually log in to a Virtual Machine. When you log out, that VM is deleted and recreated automatically.
Additionally, many antivirus solutions have some capability.
- geofft 6y agoI'm guessing ours is software restriction policies + mandatory profile: I log in with my network credentials, but I don't get my usual desktop / home directory and the only apps installed on the system are Remote Desktop and Citrix Receiver. Since I don't have either physical access or a web browser I have no way to try to get new files/apps on it but I assume it would be locked down too.
