Software Windows 10 4 - 35
Security
Located under Security, click on the Select Exit Key drop-down arrow to choose one of the following key
combinations to be used to exit kiosk mode: CTRL+ALT+Q or CTRL+ALT+L.
When the exit kiosk mode key combinations are pressed, a window displays to Log Out or Exit kiosk mode. For
both of these actions, you may require a password to be entered by selecting the Require Admin Password
check box and entering a password in the Password field.
Exiting Kiosk Mode requires administrative privileges and must be done from an administrative account or by
providing administrator credentials. The kiosk password is used to prevent unauthorized logging out.

Lockdown
The task manager allows any application to run and be controlled manually which defeats the purpose of kiosk
mode. After testing kiosk mode, it is recommended to select the Disable Task Manager check box for production
use to prevent the task manager from being activated (for example, by selecting Ctrl-Alt-Delete).
