mystes posted:Since server versions of windows can finally run without a gui, I'm surprised Microsoft still doesn't sell a pos/kiosk version of windows where only the user application runs on the gui. Or do they and nobody uses it for some reason? you could, if you wanted to, replace the shell with your kiosk app executable using a registry key. i don't think i've ever seen anyone do that though.

I think it might have been part of RDP policy where it intercepted the default explorer.exe run on logon and replaced it with something else. In my case, iexplorer with a url passed to it.

Seems like a lot of Kiosks are moving to Android more and more, I do still see a lot of XP/CE Embedded devices all over the place. Found one running unauthenticated telnet during a pen test yesterday.

Even if you replace the shell, aren't you still going to get update notifications and stuff on the display?

lath and plaster is wood, and is very bad. mesh and plaster is much worse. double brick is essentially unpenetrable old houses are absolute nightmares for connectivity
