That could be a method you can try. I use that method so I can keep other people from accessing the Bigbox menu, which does contain a lot of options, if someone who doesn't know better can mess up a lot of things. Why is that necessary? For clarity here, there are much better options available that are built-in to the app. On 1/23/2023 at 3:56 PM, megashub said: Right, but a normal, unprivileged user is still able to install software. We have no plans to make a true "kiosk"/locked down experience for Big Box. Malicious users should not be using your cab. Generally, the only reason why users need that is if they're charging money in a public area, and neither Big Box nor the games are licensed for that kind of use. Is that what you were getting at?

tkssitch Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 It works best for me and my setup. I don't want users getting into options and accidentally making changes. Having "shutdown" as its own platform, allows me to lock menu access from users accidentally into it, as well as a quicker seamless way for me to shutdown my system from a platform menu.

You can just hide options behind the lock, that way you can simply have shutdown/reboot on the menu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again best for my build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
