Kiosk mode 1803 version, allow user to change wifi password
Hello, we need to allow users to be able to change the wifi password manually on our kiosks in case the update fails when updating the password key via policy. any ideas on how to allow this? Thank...

Hi Daniel,
What was the solution for this issue. I have just come across the same situation.
Thanks

Since the machine is in KIosk mode for our customers. I created a desktop shortcut to the WIFI settings. Then I added a Keyboard cmd sequence in the shortcut all through powershell. In the Kiosk profile, I allowed the settings menu to be accessed in Kiosk mode. Then I used a CSP policy to only allow WIFI, About, and time/date settings only. It was really a workaround to my solution.
Now if our employee wants to change the wifi, they can hit a keyboard cmd to open up the wifi settings page, while our customers do not know anything about it. This is the list of URL-settings for each setting menu to allow in kiosk mode.

Hope this helps

Hi Daniel,
Could you explain further how you did this? I can't get just the WiFi settings to be available for example. So I even tried using this in the xml kiosk file
<App AppUserModelID="windows.immersivecontrolpanel_cw5n1h2txyewy!microsoft.windows.immersivecontrolpanel" />
But then it won't import the pkg , it just gives me an error. In our case, we are loaning some laptops to youth clients. I have used Kiosk multi-app mode to lock them down. But they of course need a means to join to their own wifi at home or wherever and kiosk mode blocks that.
How is it you did this Kiosk mode profile to allow for those settings to be accessed?

jhsd2020I believe your scenario is a little different. You can allow SETTINGS as a multi-app kiosk and use device restrictions policy to only allow WIFI. To me this would be your best way.

Daniel MoralesDid you allow the Settings using AUMID?
