  • Supporting universal windows platform and Win32 applications in kiosk mode
    Patent number: 11436062
    Abstract: A hook driver and a UWP load modifier can be employed on a Windows device to modify the process of loading UWP applications so that both UWP and Win32 applications can be run in kiosk mode without needing to run Windows Explorer in a typical manner. To accomplish this, the UWP load modifier can implement a proxy function that is called when the UWP loader attempts to launch a UWP application. In some configurations, when the proxy function is called, it can start Windows Explorer, cause the UWP application to be launched while Windows Explorer is running and then stop Windows Explorer once the UWP application is launched. In other configurations, when the proxy function is called, it can cause the UWP application to be launched in a separate desktop in which Windows Explorer is running and then, after it is launched, move the UWP application to the default desktop.

  • Redirection of USB devices from hardware isolated virtual desktop infrastructure clients
    Patent number: 11196799
    Abstract: USB devices can be redirected from hardware isolated VDI clients. When a VDI client is run in a hardware isolated environment, a notification service can also be run in the hardware isolated environment to enable a USB device that is not accessible within the hardware isolated environment to be redirected to a server on which the VDI client has established a remote session. In some cases, an agent can also be employed in the hardware isolated environment to temporarily redirect the USB device to the hardware isolated environment for use in establishing the remote session before the USB device is redirected to the server. Similar techniques can be employed to redirect a USB device to a hardware isolated environment so that the USB device can be accessed by an application running in the hardware isolated environment.
