Create a custom user interface

The following are the steps for creating a custom user interface in Windows 2000 or XP. Make sure not to do this with the Administrator account, as it can be a bit complicated to get back to the normal Windows user interface (explorer.exe). It is also a good idea to have something in your custom .exe file to shut down the computer programmatically.

1. Create account for the user (or access a existing user account) and log in as this user.
2. Click Start , and then click Run .
3. In the Open box, type gpedit.msc , and then click OK .
4. Expand User Configuration , expand Administrative Templates , and then expand System .
5. In the right pane, double-click 'Custom user interface'
6. Click Enabled , and then in the Interface file name enter the application you wish to run (e.g C:\Program Files\National Instruments\Labview 6.1.exe)
7. Click Apply , click OK , and then click OK .
8. Restart the computer.

Remember, if you do get stuck, you can still access the Windows Task Manager with Ctrl+Alt+Del and run explorer.exe from there.
