Installing the MetaDefender Kiosk Hardened Image

You can now use this deployment USB to flash a device with the Hardened image.

In order to apply the image to a device please do the following:

  • Insert your deployment USB into the device.
  • Boot the device from the off state and initiate the keyboard shortcut to enter the system BIOS or “one-time” boot menu. (This keyboard shortcut varies based on motherboard manufacturers)
  • Select the deployment USB in the boot menu. Ensure you are booting into UEFI mode or the image will not boot properly.
  • Boot up the PC with the USB that we just created
  • Follow the on-screen command prompt questions:
    • If available enter your Windows License key.
    • Select the drive to install the image. All data will be wiped.
    • Choose whether or not to do a full pass wipe (Selecting "Yes" will take much longer).
    • Choose whether or not to restart the device when complete.
