Add Home Screen Items

Use this dialog to configure lockdown for Windows Desktop Classic or Windows Desktop Modern devices.

Specify the display name, program path, or URL of the item you want to add to the lockdown menu. You can also set a custom image for the menu item. You do this when:

Display Name Enter the name that appears on the device’s lockdown menu.
Program Path or URL Enter the file path or URL for the executable that launches when the user selects this menu item. The path or URL doesn’t appear on the lockdown menu.
Note:

  • Include an extra forward slash after the root directory. For example, to add Notepad, use C:\Windows\\system32\\notepad.exe instead of C:\Windows\system32\notepad.exe.

  • Use a comma with no spaces to separate the path from command-line arguments. For example: C:\Program Files\\MyProg\\Prog.exe,param1 param2.

  • If the program path includes spaces, enclose it using %22 instead of quotation marks ( " ).

Use Custom Image [Optional] Enable this toggle to select an image file for the lockdown menu item. The image automatically deploys with the lockdown configuration. Select an image from the list or choose Browse File to upload one from your file system. To display the custom image in the lockdown menu, include the <MCDispImgN> tag in your HTML template. For more information, see Customizing Lockdown Menu Templates.
Note: If you need to replace an existing image, upload a new file with the same name. When prompted, select Yes to confirm. The new image replaces the old one.
