Windows 10: Kiosk mode error when using rs5:AutoLaunch="true"

Windows 10 Build 1809 LTSC. Building a kiosk system to run a desktop application.

I setup a provisioning package using WCD and included an exported a start menu layout.

When I put rs5:AutoLaunch="true" in the xml to auto launch the app The following happens.

The custom layout menu briefly displays then I get this error.

"unhandled unknown exception; terminating the application"

I click ok to that error, then click on the desktop, the custom menu shows up. I can click on my icon and the application runs fine.


No errors in the AssignedAccess log (admin or operational and I enabled operational).

No errors in AppxLocker.


Don't know where to go from here.

Windows 10 kiosk mode: screen locks after login

Hi Matthias,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that you are facing issues while using Kiosk Mode on Windows 10.



Since you are being logged out of Kiosk Mode after every login, I suggest you to refer the article

Troubleshoot kiosk mode issues.



Also, you can try removing and creating the Kiosk account again, follow the steps mentioned below to remove the Kiosk account:

1. Go to Settings >
   Accounts > Family & other people.
   
2. Under Setup a kiosk option click on
   Assigned access.
   
3. Now under Kiosk info click on the
   account name and click on Remove kiosk.
   
4. Now click on Remove.
   

Once the account is removed, refer the article to
Set up a single-app kiosk.



Hope it helps.
