Windows Environment Settings

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 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.
