...I know, sounds crazy. Everyone wants to disable Metro, but I want to do the opposite. I want to disable the desktop.
Actually, I'm making a Kiosk like application. I want only the application (metro) to be run and I don't want users to be able to leave the app. Additionally, it will be run via remote control (like a windows media center style remote).
We need to allow users to insert a USB drive/stick. Everytime the USB drive is inserted, the desktop thinks it needs to open the drive and it kicks out of the Metro app.
I tried gpedit.msc and changed the Autoplay/Autorun settings which are supposed to disable this behavior, but It doesn't seem to work.
Anyone have some good ideas?
