01. Login in as an **Administrator** on your Window device. We recommend [creating a new Administrator user](https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/help/4026923/windows-10-create-a-local-user-or-administrator-account) for your device and use these credentials just for setting up the Windows Kiosk app.

02. Connect to your public Wi-Fi. We recommend this for additional security.

03. Enter [https://bit.ly/2SsXdOU](https://bit.ly/2SsXdOU) in a browser. It may ask for permission to download a `.VBS` file. Click **Save** to confirm.

04. Open the downloaded `windows_kiosk.vbs` file. It may ask for permission to open the file and to allow the app to make changes to your devices. Click **Yes**.

05. When the command prompt window appears, read the notes, then press any key and hit Enter to start the process.

06. You'll be asked if you'd want this user to automatically login each time the device is booted. We recommend you do this. If you decide to select **No**, skip to **Step 8**.

07. In the **User Accounts** window. **Untick the checkbox** beside _Users must enter a name and password to use this computer_.

**Note:** In some versions of Windows 10 this checkbox has been removed. To restore it, follow this workaround:

1. Open **Registry Editor**, then navigate to the following path: `HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\PasswordLess\Device`.
    2. On the right side pane, double click **DevicePasswordLessBuildVersion.**
    3. In the pop-up window change the **Value data** decimal to `0` .
    4. Close **Registry Editor**.
    5. Restart your machine and **return to Step 4** when you first open the downloaded `windows_kiosk.vbs` file. This time the checkbox should appear.

08. In the **User Accounts** window, click **Apply**, followed by **OK**. Enter and confirm the current user's **password**.

09. If Google Chrome isn't found on your device it will now be installed automatically. Chrome will boot automatically following installation. When it's finished close the browser window or switch back to the command prompt.

10. **Reboot** your computer, closing any other open applications.

11. Depending on whether you selected automatic login, you'll notice the **Passcode screen** appear. This is the code you'll need to link your Geckoboard dashboard.

12. Login to Geckoboard on a different device and [Send to screen](https://support.geckoboard.com/en/articles/6055746-use-send-to-screen-to-display-your-dashboards-on-a-screen) to display your dashboard.

13. Make sure the timezone on your device matches the one on your dashboard.
