Suppose your Mac couldn't be recovered in any other way, you might as well try Recovery Mode to diagnose disk problems, get help online or install the version of OS X that ran sometime on your Mac. To enter recovery mode, you can reboot Mac and press 'Command+R' when you hear the startup voice. Hi everyone: I am curious to know if it is feasible to configure an iPad in single app mode and automated to just receive FaceTime calls. This is for a 99-year-old person in a retirement home who has not touched a computer in years and is beyond learning to use an iPad. The idea is that we (his. File type associations: If you need to open Microsoft Word.doc files inside an actual Word app inside Windows, and not with Mac's own TextEdit app, Parallels can make that happen. Step 1: Start Mac in single user mode. To boot Mac in single user mode, just need to power on Mac and hold on Command + S. If you fail, try another time. Step 2: Mount the startup drive. While you see a command prompt in the form of a ':/ root#', type the command below to make files accessible in the startup drive. Press Enter to continue. I can get the Mac to boot into single-user mode, where I can work at the command line. Peering through the 30 vertical lines, I can see that the hard drive is there, and all of my files are still there, so I thought I’d try to make another backup of them. Today Microsoft Edge does not support the same Microsoft Edge Legacy kiosk mode types for single-app assigned access and the 'Public browsing' kiosk mode type in multi-app assigned access. If you need a browser for your single-app assigned access kiosk device, we recommend using Microsoft Edge Legacy kiosk mode or the Microsoft Kiosk Browser app.

Applies to

• Windows 10 Pro, Enterprise, and Education

A single-app kiosk uses the Assigned Access feature to run a single app above the lockscreen. When the kiosk account signs in, the app is launched automatically. The person using the kiosk cannot do anything on the device outside of the kiosk app.

Important

User account control (UAC) must be turned on to enable kiosk mode.

Kiosk mode is not supported over a remote desktop connection. Your kiosk users must sign in on the physical device that is set up as a kiosk. Apps that run in kiosk mode cannot use copy and paste.

You have several options for configuring your single-app kiosk.

Method	Description
Locally, in Settings	The Set up a kiosk (previously named Set up assigned access) option in Settings is a quick and easy method to set up a single device as a kiosk for a local standard user account. This method is supported on Windows 10 Pro, Enterprise, and Education.
PowerShell	You can use Windows PowerShell cmdlets to set up a single-app kiosk. First, you need to create the user account on the device and install the kiosk app for that account. This method is supported on Windows 10 Pro, Enterprise, and Education.
The kiosk wizard in Windows Configuration Designer	Windows Configuration Designer is a tool that produces a provisioning package, which is a package of configuration settings that can be applied to one or more devices during the first-run experience (OOBE) or after OOBE is done (runtime). You can also create the kiosk user account and install the kiosk app, as well as other useful settings, using the kiosk wizard. This method is supported on Windows 10 Pro (version 1709 and later), Enterprise, and Education.
Microsoft Intune or other mobile device management (MDM) provider	For managed devices, you can use MDM to set up a kiosk configuration. This method is supported on Windows 10 Pro (version 1709 and later), Enterprise, and Education.

Tip

You can also configure a kiosk account and app for single-app kiosk within XML in a provisioning package by using a kiosk profile.

Be sure to check the configuration recommendations before you set up your kiosk.

Set up a kiosk in local Settings

App type: UWP

OS edition: Windows 10 Pro, Ent, Edu

Account type: Local standard user

You can use Settings to quickly configure one or a few devices as a kiosk.

Single App Mode Ios

When your kiosk is a local device that is not managed by Active Directory or Azure Active Directory, there is a default setting that enables automatic sign-in after a restart. That means that when the device restarts, the last signed-in user will be signed in automatically. If the last signed-in user is the kiosk account, the kiosk app will be launched automatically after the device restarts.

• If you want the kiosk account signed in automatically and the kiosk app launched when the device restarts, there is nothing you need to do.

• If you do not want the kiosk account signed in automatically when the device restarts, you must change the default setting before you configure the device as a kiosk. Sign in with the account that you will assign as the kiosk account, go to Settings > Accounts > Sign-in options, and toggle the Use my sign-in info to automatically finish setting up my device after an update or restart setting to Off. After you change the setting, you can apply the kiosk configuration to the device.

Mac Single App Model

When you use the Provision kiosk devices wizard in Windows Configuration Designer, you can configure the kiosk to run either a Universal Windows app or a Windows desktop application.

Install Windows Configuration Designer, then open Windows Configuration Designer and select Provision kiosk devices. After you name your project, and click Next, configure the settings as shown in the following table.

Enable device setup if you want to configure settings on this page. If enabled: Enter a name for the device. (Optional) Select a license file to upgrade Windows 10 to a different edition. See the permitted upgrades. Toggle Configure devices for shared use off. This setting optimizes Windows 10 for shared use scenarios and isn't necessary for a kiosk scenario. You can also select to remove pre-installed software from the device.

Enable network setup if you want to configure settings on this page. If enabled: Toggle On or Off for wireless network connectivity. If you select On, enter the SSID, the network type (Open or WPA2-Personal), and (if WPA2-Personal) the password for the wireless network.

Enable account management if you want to configure settings on this page. If enabled: You can enroll the device in Active Directory, enroll in Azure Active Directory, or create a local administrator account on the device To enroll the device in Active Directory, enter the credentials for a least-privileged user account to join the device to the domain. Before you use a Windows Configuration Designer wizard to configure bulk Azure AD enrollment, set up Azure AD join in your organization. The maximum number of devices per user setting in your Azure AD tenant determines how many times the bulk token that you get in the wizard can be used. To enroll the device in Azure AD, select that option and enter a friendly name for the bulk token you will get using the wizard. Set an expiration date for the token (maximum is 180 days from the date you get the token). Click Get bulk token. In the Let's get you signed in window, enter an account that has permissions to join a device to Azure AD, and then the password. Click Accept to give Windows Configuration Designer the necessary permissions. Warning: You must run Windows Configuration Designer on Windows 10 to configure Azure Active Directory enrollment using any of the wizards. To create a local administrator account, select that option and enter a user name and password. Important: If you create a local account in the provisioning package, you must change the password using the Settings app every 42 days. If the password is not changed during that period, the account might be locked out and unable to sign in.

You can provision the kiosk app in the Add applications step. You can install multiple applications, both Windows desktop applications (Win32) and Universal Windows Platform (UWP) apps, in a provisioning package. The settings in this step vary according to the application that you select. For help with the settings, see Provision PCs with apps Warning: If you click the plus button to add an application, you must specify an application for the provisioning package to validate. If you click the plus button in error, select any executable file in Installer Path, and then a Cancel button becomes available, allowing you to complete the provisioning package without an application.

To provision the device with a certificate for the kiosk app, click Add a certificate. Enter a name for the certificate, and then browse to and select the certificate to be used.

You can create a local standard user account that will be used to run the kiosk app. If you toggle No, make sure that you have an existing user account to run the kiosk app. If you want to create an account, enter the user name and password, and then toggle Yes or No to automatically sign in the account when the device starts. (If you encounter issues with auto sign-in after you apply the provisioning package, check the Event Viewer logs for auto logon issues under Applications and Services LogsMicrosoftWindowsAuthentication User InterfaceOperational.) In Configure the kiosk mode app, enter the name of the user account that will run the kiosk mode app. Select the type of app to run in kiosk mode, and then enter the path or filename (for a Windows desktop application) or the AUMID (for a Universal Windows app). For a Windows desktop application, you can use the filename if the path to the file is in the PATH environment variable, otherwise the full path is required.

On this step, select your options for tablet mode, the user experience on the Welcome and shutdown screens, and the timeout settings.

You can set a password to protect your provisioning package. You must enter this password when you apply the provisioning package to a device.

Note

Single App Mode Windows 10

If you want to use the advanced editor in Windows Configuration Designer, specify the user account and app (by AUMID) in Runtime settings > AssignedAccess > AssignedAccessSettings

Important

When you build a provisioning package, you may include sensitive information in the project files and in the provisioning package (.ppkg) file. Although you have the option to encrypt the .ppkg file, project files are not encrypted. You should store the project files in a secure location and delete the project files when they are no longer needed.

Set up a kiosk or digital sign using Microsoft Intune or other MDM service

App type: UWP

Apple Single App Mode

OS edition: Windows 10 Pro (version 1709), Ent, Edu

Account type: Local standard user, Azure AD

Microsoft Intune and other MDM services enable kiosk configuration through the AssignedAccess configuration service provider (CSP). Assigned Access has a KioskModeApp setting. In the KioskModeApp setting, you enter the user account name and the AUMID for the app to run in kiosk mode.

Tip

Starting in Windows 10, version 1803, a ShellLauncher node has been added to the AssignedAccess CSP.

To configure a kiosk in Microsoft Intune, see Windows 10 and Windows Holographic for Business device settings to run as a dedicated kiosk using Intune. For other MDM services, see the documentation for your provider.

Sign out of assigned access

To exit the assigned access (kiosk) app, press Ctrl + Alt + Del, and then sign in using another account. When you press Ctrl + Alt + Del to sign out of assigned access, the kiosk app will exit automatically. If you sign in again as the assigned access account or wait for the login screen timeout, the kiosk app will be re-launched. The assigned access user will remain signed in until an admin account opens Task Manager > Users and signs out the user account.

If you press Ctrl + Alt + Del and do not sign in to another account, after a set time, assigned access will resume. The default time is 30 seconds, but you can change that in the following registry key:
