I’ve applied a kiosk policy to my Windows device through Hexnode UEM, and now the device is locked down in kiosk mode. How can I exit kiosk mode when I need to, and is it possible to use remote view while the device is in kiosk mode?

Thanks for raising the question.
-
To exit kiosk mode on Windows devices, you have two main options:
-
From the Hexnode UEM portal:
-
Disassociate the device/user/group from the kiosk policy under Policies → Policy Targets.
-
Or remove the kiosk policy directly from the device/user/group under Manage → Devices/Users/Groups.
-
Alternatively, archive the kiosk policy, which automatically disassociates it from all devices.
-
Directly on the device:
-
Press Ctrl + Alt + Del and sign out of the kiosk account.
-
In multi-app kiosk mode, you can also sign out from the Start menu by clicking the user icon. (This option isn’t available in single-app kiosk mode.
For more information, do refer: How to exit kiosk mode on Windows devices?

Regarding your second question on remote view in kiosk mode:
In multi-app kiosk, remote view is possible, but you must add Hexnode UEM and the Hexnode Remote Assist App as background apps in the kiosk configuration for it to work.
