DESCRIPTION

The Set-AssignedAccess cmdlet configures the specified user account so that it can use only one Windows Store app. The user cannot exit the app, sign out, or access any system settings.

If a user is signed-in or the computer has a PS/2 keyboard, you must restart the computer to apply the changes.

To sign out of assigned access, quickly press the left Windows logo key five times.

Assigned Access cmdlets are supported on Windows 10 and Windows 11 client operating systems only.

EXAMPLES

PS C:\> Set-AssignedAccess -UserSID "S-1-5-21-523423449-2432423479-234123443-1004" -AppName "CustomApp"

This command configures assigned access by using the user SID and the app name.

Example 2: Set assigned access by user name and AppUserModelID

PS C:\> Set-AssignedAccess -UserName "UserName" -AppUserModelId "microsoft.windowsphotos_8wekyb3d8bbwe!app"
