I need windows 10 to run only one program

Can somebody give me advice to strip windows 10 for running only one program.
I am running a POS(point of sale) programmend in Java (openbravo),i need internet for remote support a printer and an USB touch screen
At this moment i am running windows 10 pro 64bit

How to disable/remove as much programs/features/services as possible. (freeware/opensource/script  would be perfect) or maybe there is a better windows 10 or a better way to install windows 10
I have to do this for many pc's, it has to be windows 10

Thanks for helping

Please acknowledge that your java app is not available through assigned access because it is a classic app, no modern style app. That means, you would have to use shell launcher and can't be secure that the user won't break out: https://msdn.microsoft.com/de-de/library/windows/hardware/mt270118(v=vs.85).aspx (section "important").

Reading both your answer i realize that the description of my question is not 100% good
My problem is not that people can not leave the program
I am looking for a way to disable as much possible software i do not need and in a way that i dont need hours to install the system (sorry for my bad english and explanation)

Thanks Danny

Hi,

How many machines are you talking about? It sounds like you need to be looking at Microsoft Deployment Toolkit 2013 (Update 2) to automate it no matter what route you go down.

It sounds like you need Kiosk mode too if it's a point of sale machine. It has to be super secure, with no entry points except to the Java app.

At this moment its just 3/4 machines per week but i hope it wil be more in the near feature:)
The reason is to free as much resources as possible because the openbravo system has a heavy load on the system
I am testing some small systems from china with Intel Atom Processor 2GB and 32GB storage and sometimes if i just do a print de computer falters.
Most of my questions are allready answered but i just leave it for a day more open if somebody has any additional info

Thanks Danny
