    Hello!

    I am developing an application and I want users to only use the application, not to be able to use any function or aspect of windows. It means that users can't do ctrl+alt+del or alt+tab, or this kind of shortcuts.

    Is there any possibility to do this from qt?

    Thank you very much!

      I doubt.
      This is probably what you need: https://www.manageengine.com/mobile-device-management/mdm-windows-10-kiosk-mode.html

        @ivanicy There is not. You would need to run Windows in the kiosk mode as @jsulm pointed out. System architecture from Windows XP/2000 forbids this (in Windows 95/98 it was possible by specifying your program as "command=your_program" instead of "command=explorer.exe" in the win.ini file)

        For more information please re-read.

        Kind Regards,
        Artur
