Hopefully someone can help me here! I have an express 15 minute kiosk intended for quick printing or email checks. When a user comes up to the station, they have to press a button on screen to say they read/agree to the user policies of the library before using the station. Every 5 minutes and on the last minute they are warned about how much time they have left. At the end of 15 minutes, everything is closed, the desktop is wiped, and they're booted off. While a user (and abuser) could simply wait a moment as the station resets and log back on, usually the inconvenience of losing all their work every 15 minutes is enough to dissuade them from doing so. We currently have a program that works like this, but it will only run on XP. I'd like to update the station to 7, so I need a replacement. Remote access would be a plus, but it's not necessary. I'm not worried about keeping the station secure because we have Deep Freeze. All I'm looking for is that timer functionality.
