Reception area PCs: Remaining issues with the software image

That’s a new one: . likely fixed by logging in with an admin account first before freezing.
IE8 windows in kiosk mode where clients need to log in (and out, using the built in links not by closing the browser)
1. 49erexpress , the rest is linked there and opens in a new window which can also be closed, as long as the login dialogue stays up
2. mail.uncc.edu
3. Moodle
Safari
1. default dialogues need to be changed
  1. no “not default browser”:
    1. close w/o saving settings/tabs
2. should start and load the UNCC-LRRC calendar (could be home page)
Chrome
1. business chrome install, but interferes with zoomit shortcuts
Firefox
Spreadsheet opens read-only.
not needed, store in outlook, also we do not output code to spreadsheet anymore anyway to discourage manual copy: Writable spreadsheet is not useful anyway on a frozen PC
Deepfreeze did install and could be frozen, but does not accept its password for thawing locally and needs to be thawed from the Deepfreeze Console. Password has been updated.
The MS-Office tooltips are set to French – this is for testing:
Internet Explorer managed to sneak in Bing as the default search provider;
When starting MS-word, there is a DOCUMENT Recovery pane.
in explorer, protected operating files are not shown, but hidden files
label screens on lrc assistant side.
1. LRC assistants use Firefox, clients use Internet explorer (full-screen – use ALT+TAB to switch windows)
2. show on 2nd screen:
  1. SAFARI with UNCC-LRC calendar
  2. Moodle Spanish announcement (?)
  3. Printers
    1. department: optional
    2. Ricoh: default
