more specific,
                  
                  
                  what would be the fastest, and/or your preferred way of running a kiosk in windows that does the following:
                  
                  
                  - startup a page (or app) with 3 links
                  
                  
                  - link 1 and 2 each opens a specific URL in a modal
                  
                  
                  - link 3 launches a windows executable, in windowed mode, foreground (even better if modal)
                  
                  
                  - closing the modals or executable would return to the page
                  
                  
                  
                  
                  
                  I've tried/been considering the following:
                  
                  
                  1. OpenKiosk: I haven't found a way to run it with extensions to use IE rendering engine, so can't launch .exe
                  
                  
                  2. Tweaked Chrome/windows settings to boot as a kiosk: I managed to launch the .exe from Chrome, but the IE extension is limited
                  
                  
                  3. paid kiosk software: SiteKiosk, I got access but looks like it's IE-only  
                  
                  
                  4. Both (2) or (3) would require rebuilding the page for IE specifically  
                  
                  
                  5. URI Scheme: 2 of you mentioned it and I found the article just not comfy with Registry and steps unclear
                  
                  
                  6. server: like python or node.js should be able to launch exes
                  
                  
                  6a. maybe Electron, so I can keep my page ? 🤔 defo interesting to learn but gonna take time
                  
                  
                
Like I said, the URI is the way to go
