Here is one example on setting up a public computer from Microsoft: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/configuration/lock-down-windows-10-to-specific-apps This is not a comprehensive list of settings and will not result in a secure environment like a linux-based Groovix installation. As part of the Groovix [[ Windows_Client_Installation|windows client installation steps ]] you should have this file: C:\ProgramData\Groovix\Scripts\groovix-user-environment-config.bat which you can run as administrator to set some common options including: * Hide Power Options ( to prevent shutdowns as opposed to reboots ) * Disable Security And Maintenance Notifications * Restrict Software Install and Uninstall * Change Default Explorer View to this PC Other recommendations: * Go into settings and disable Screen Power Management / Sleep. * Set Windows Explorer views and map any network drives * Set homepage and default values for all web browsers * Open and configure programs you installed earlier at least one time to set registry values, open and close Chrome at least three times * Navigate to C:\ProgramData\Groovix\Scripts, send logout.exe to the desktop as a shortcut and pin it in the start menu and taskbar. This forces a reboot at logout to allow the machine to reset between users.
