Some desktop devices in an enterprise serve a special purpose, such as a PC in the lobby that customers can use to view your product catalog or a PC displaying visual content as a digital sign. Windows 10 offers two different locked-down experiences for public or specialized use:

- **A single-app kiosk**, which runs a single Universal Windows Platform (UWP) app in fullscreen above the lockscreen. People using the kiosk can see only that app. When the kiosk account (a local standard user account) signs in, the kiosk app will launch automatically, and you can configure the kiosk account to sign in automatically as well. If the kiosk app is closed, it will automatically restart.
A single-app kiosk is ideal for public use. Using [Shell Launcher](kiosk-shelllauncher.md), you can configure a kiosk device that runs a Windows desktop application as the user interface. The application that you specify replaces the default shell (explorer.exe) that usually runs when a user logs on. This type of single-app kiosk does not run above the lockscreen.

- **A multi-app kiosk**, which runs one or more apps from the desktop. People using the kiosk see a customized Start that shows only the tiles for the apps that are allowed. With this approach, you can configure a locked-down experience for different account types.
A multi-app kiosk is appropriate for devices that are shared by multiple people. When you configure a multi-app kiosk, [specific policies are enforced](kiosk-policies.md) that will affect **all** non-administrator users on the device.
![Illustration of a kiosk Start screen](images/kiosk-desktop.png)
Kiosk configurations are based on **Assigned Access**, a feature in Windows 10 that allows an administrator to manage the user's experience by limiting the application entry points exposed to the user.
There are several kiosk configuration methods that you can choose from, depending on your answers to the following questions.
| | |
--- | ---
![icon that represents apps](images/office-logo.png) | **Which type of app will your kiosk run?** Your kiosk can run a Universal Windows Platform (UWP) app or a Windows desktop application. For [digital signage](setup-digital-signage.md), simply select a digital sign player as your kiosk app. [Check out the guidelines for kiosk apps.](guidelines-for-assigned-access-app.md)
![icon that represents a kiosk](images/kiosk.png) | **Which type of kiosk do you need?** If you want your kiosk to run a single app for anyone to see or use, consider a single-app kiosk that runs either a [Universal Windows Platform (UWP) app](#uwp) or a [Windows desktop application](#classic). For a kiosk that people can sign in to with their accounts or that runs more than one app, choose [a multi-app kiosk](#desktop).
![icon that represents Windows](images/windows.png) | **Which edition of Windows 10 will the kiosk run?** All of the configuration methods work for Windows 10 Enterprise and Education; some of the methods work for Windows 10 Pro. Kiosk mode is not available on Windows 10 Home.
![icon that represents a user account](images/user.png) | **Which type of user account will be the kiosk account?** The kiosk account can be a local standard user account, a local administrator account, a domain account, or an Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) account, depending on the method that you use to configure the kiosk. If you want people to sign in and authenticate on the device, you should use a multi-app kiosk configuration. The single-app kiosk configuration doesn't require people to sign in to the device, although they can sign in to the kiosk app if you select an app that has a sign-in method.

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.

If youve decided that you need to synchronize settings for custom applications, use this checklist to determine which applications youll include.
| | **Description** |
|-------|--------------------------|
| ![Checklist box](images/uev-checklist-box.gif) | Does this application contain settings that the user can customize? |
| ![Checklist box](images/uev-checklist-box.gif) | Is it important for the user that these settings are synchronized? |
| ![Checklist box](images/uev-checklist-box.gif) | Are these user settings already managed by an application management or settings policy solution? UE-V applies application settings at application startup and Windows settings at logon, unlock, or remote connect events. If you use UE-V with other settings sharing solutions, users might experience inconsistency across synchronized settings. |
| ![Checklist box](images/uev-checklist-box.gif) | Are the application settings specific to the computer? Application preferences and customizations that are associated with hardware or specific computer configurations do not consistently synchronize across sessions and can cause a poor application experience. |
| ![Checklist box](images/uev-checklist-box.gif) | Does the application store settings in the Program Files directory or in the file directory that is located in the **Users**\\ \[User name\] \\**AppData**\\**LocalLow** directory? Application data that is stored in either of these locations usually should not synchronize with the user, because this data is specific to the computer or because the data is too large to synchronize. |
| ![Checklist box](images/uev-checklist-box.gif) | Does the application store any settings in a file that contains other application data that should not synchronize? UE-V synchronizes files as a single unit. If settings are stored in files that include application data other than settings, then synchronizing this additional data can cause a poor application experience. |
| ![Checklist box](images/uev-checklist-box.gif) | How large are the files that contain the settings? The performance of the settings synchronization can be affected by large files. Including large files can affect the performance of settings synchronization. |
