Hi!
The black screen is the windows wallpaper, I think you can use group policy to amend this if you wish: Best Practice: Using Group Policy to configure Desktop Wallpaper (“Background”)
I prefer the domain account as you can use group policy to manage and maintain the kiosks. I generally use a single domain account as it's just much easier to do that way.
Thanks for the feedback, I greatly appreciate it.
FN-GM, I can't respond to your DM as your inbox is full, but to answer your question, yes it can, use the process launcher with the latest version.
If either of you need more help, feel free to email me andrew(at)andrewmorgan.ie
