How to hide OS and run only SINGLE application
-
Hi all, I ve a desktop application in c#. I want the application to start automatically when computer starts. and during the Execution of the appication, user should not access other prgrams in anyway ... (i have windows XP, during execution of application OS functions should be completely hidden, Even user cannot shutdown it from menu. PC should get shutdown when application gets closed) How can i achieve this... Thanks in advance... Regards, SIFAR.

Change the shell from explorer.exe to your program.

If its a Legal Program, just make it a Service and let it run automatically when you Computer starts :)

Yes, it is a legal application, But the user may be a non-technical person and he will be allowed to change only some settings in the application. I ve made a Windows service in my application, Service also starts with the Computer, But how can i run my application from Windows Service? ( i wrote, OnStart event of Service and i used System.Diagnostics.Process in it but it did not work) ??????

There is a program available that essentially turns the computer into a kiosk, allowing only specified program to run, and other things like that. I don't remember the name of it, but google "windows kiosk software" and see what you come up with.

I GOT THE SOLUTION : i gave my exe path in below registry. READ CAUTION DO THE CHANGES CAREFULLY. ******************** HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System\Shell ******************** if system is not there then create it. >>>> CAUTION >>>>> DON'T FORGET TO GIVE AN OPTION TO CLEAR THIS SHELL VALUE IN YOUR EXECUTING APPLICATION. OTHERWISE YOU WILL NOT GET BACK TO NORMAL MODE. EVEN IN SAFE MODE ALSO IT WILL START THAT EXE ONLY. Have a great time
