Configuring a computer for gallery use

This article will explain how to set up a Windows 11 Pro computer for unattended operation, for example when running a gallery installation or kiosk. This article is a companion to Remote Computer Access.

These articles do not assume that you are an expert, but do require you to be familiar with using Windows. If required, you can find more detailed tutorials online. My aim here is to be concise and precise since I have not yet found an overview of this kind.

I regularly create gallery installations where audiovisual material is run on a computer that a) might difficult to physically access, and b) must be run with the minimum of technical knowledge. In these cases it is much easier to administer the functionality using a second remote computer.

First, read Configuring a Computer for Gallery Use, which explains how to set up the host computer. Then return here.
