Troubleshooting Issues

UI

With some high resolution touch screens, click events from a mouse are not registered if the Scale and Layout display setting is set to greater than 100%. Workaround is to hold the right mouse button to ensure the left button click is respected.

Physical Input Devices

Customers have reported some localization issues with older versions of Windows 10 and physical input devices (e.g. keyboard, mouse, etc...). If you experience these issues, please try updating the system to see if it resolves the issue. If the issue persists, please contact Customer Support.

License Activation

Internet Explorer is EOL [end of life] as of June 15th, 2022. We should recommend configuring proxy in their browser [Edge, firefox] or system wide through:

Open Settings > Go to Network & Internet → Proxy > Configure Proxy Settings:

Automatic proxy setup:

Toggle on “Automatically detect settings” (uses WPAD)

Manual proxy setup:

Toggle on “Use a proxy server”

Enter your proxy IP address and port

Click Save

Joining a Hardware Kiosk to a domain

In some cases, joining a Kiosk to a domain will fail. The Netlogon service fails to start with error: "Windows could not start the Netlogon service on Local Computer. Error 1058...". Verify if any recent network settings have been modified. Restart the system to ensure network setting changes have been correctly applied and the Netlogon service can start as expected.
