Windows 10: Windows 10 - Disable Internet, allow Intranet

Hello,


I have a quick question. As in the title, I need to disable a public computer so that the Internet is disabled for select users, and the intranet access is left alone. All other accounts must remain unaffected. I know that there are similar questions to this, but the difference between those and this question is that I am unable to deal with the firewall, disabling through the GPO affects too little, and outright changing the proxy settings or disabling the adapters affects all the users on the computer. I know back in windows 7, it was possible to create separate network profiles for each user. I need something like that for this machine. Is there a method that will allow me to achieve this? There will be multiple users, both admins and not, using this machine. The admin accounts and most of the standard accounts must be unaffected.

:)

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

Media Cloud on Intranet

Hi, I'm working with my old High school where my folks work. The school is a boarding school with like 10,000 acres. What I'm explaining here is the relative size of the campus. The school wants to setup a cloud network for streaming media. The idea is for the cloud server to connect to the internet and cache everything for the Intranet. The thin client things ( unsure what to call them ) need to be located in each room and they need a touch screen and controller to let users select the media they wish to view (Netflix, blockbuster, youtube, local media, Facebook, etc.) and the Cloud server would Cache everything and allow the Intranet to view it all fluidly. (on command) The intranet is Fiber. It has Wireless as well. They want Linux and either a Custom build machine/interface or a pre-built machine that fits the purpose of Internet and Media on the Intranet. Again, the idea is that the Cloud server will be the main link to the Net. I have included a Mind Map image of the Idea.
