In BPM Studio you have the option to run the software as an “Exclusive Shell Application”. Immediately after logging into Windows, BPM Studio appears and nothing else Windows-related (taskbar, desktop icons etc) loads. On exiting BPM, the user is returned to the Windows login screen.

Does anyone know how this is achieved? I want to do something similar for some software i’m working on. I’ve done a lot of research and can’t find any leads!

Thanks

    The key in the registry is called:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon -> Shell

    which should be set to explorer.exe. BPM Studio probably changed this key.
