Hello, This is possible by adding the application (.exe) to the SiteKiosk configuration (-->Applications) and activating the option “Start application automatically”. Further information here: http://www.provisio.com/helpconsole/SiteKiosk%20Help/en-US/default.htm?applications.htm Alternatively you can use a script or other Windows methods – see: http://www.provisio.com/CustomerSupportCenter/ArticleDetails.aspx?ArticleID=5353 Regards, Michael Olbrich

Hi, That has worked perfect, but teh issue now is that if the user accidentally closes the application, there are no deskto icon. How do I create a desktop icon, just for the application or prevent user from closing the application. Regards Ketan Vaghela

Hello, If you enabled th option “Start program automatically, it will hide the program in the Start menu or the Applications page in the SiteKiosk browser. If you do want to display the program in these areas, create a second entry without specifying the automatic start options. http://www.provisio.com/helpconsole/SiteKiosk%20Help/en-US/default.htm?applications.htm --> Run program automatically If you want to prevent that the application will be closed, you need to create a script.
