Microsoft Edge kiosk mode supports four configurations types that depend on how Microsoft Edge is set up with assigned access, either as a single-app or multi-app kiosk. These configuration types help you determine what configuration type is best suited for your kiosk device or scenario. For more details about setting up a single-app kiosk, see [Set up a kiosk or digital signage on Windows 10 Pro, Enterprise, or Education](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/configuration/setup-kiosk-digital-signage).

The four kiosk mode configuration types supported are:
### Tips
- The public browsing kiosk types run Microsoft Edge InPrivate mode to protect user data with a browsing experience designed for public kiosks.
- Microsoft Edge kiosk mode has a built-in timer to help keep data safe in public browsing sessions. When the idle time (no user activity) meets the time limit, a confirmation message prompts the user to continue, and if no user activity Microsoft Edge resets the session to the default URL. By default, the idle timer is 5 minutes, but you can choose a value of your own.
### Configuration types supported
When you set up kiosk mode, you can also define a single URL for the Home button, Start page, and New Tab page, or set the reset after an idle timeout. For more details, see [Supported policies for kiosk mode](#supported-policies-for-kiosk-mode).
