Windows 10: how to prevent switching or closing an application


I'm developing an app for a Windows 10 device. This device will be exposed to users in a public place and its hardware buttons will be inaccessible. How can I prevent a user from closing my application using touchscreen gestures?


Solution

  • Set up your application with Assigned Access: http://www.winbeta.org/news/setup-assigned-access-windows-10-kiosk-mode

    This will allow you to have your application launched as soon as the user is logged and nobody will be able to exit/close/switch the app.
