So I should enable auto log in as guest. Then restrict the apps using Local Group Policy editor.<br />
<br />
Is that right?<br />
<br />
And does local group policy apply to all users or can I specify the policy for each user?

Hi,<br />
<br />
If you are domain joined, then you can apply a Group Policy to different users etc.<br />
<br />
If you enable a local policy, then it applies to all users (including Administrator) but I believe there is a workaround for that.<br />

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
In my previous question, it was suggested that I install Win7 Professional on a desktop pc used for ticket kiosk.<br />
<br />
The application which will serve as the user interface will be running on .NET Framework 4.0<br />
<br />
My next question is how should I configure the OS. It shouldn't ask for user login at startup (auto login?). What type of user should I use? How do I disable all notifications or pop up messages? Should I disable automatic updates? Do I need to install an antivirus (since it might prompt to restart the pc after a major update)?<br />
<br />
I am also open to any other suggestions.<br />
<br />
TIA

Ticket Kiosk OS Configuration

Windows OS

A personal computer is a general-purpose computer whose size, capabilities and price make it useful for individuals, and is intended to be operated directly by an end-user with no intervening computer time-sharing models that allowed systems to be used by many people, usually at the same time. Personal computers may be connected to a local area network (LAN), either by a cable or a wireless connection, and through that to the Internet. A personal computer may be a laptop computer or a desktop computer running an operating system such as Windows, Linux or Macintosh OS.

Windows 7 is an operating system from Microsoft. Features include multi-touch support, a redesigned Windows Shell with a new taskbar, referred to as the Superbar, a home networking system called HomeGroup, and performance improvements.
