Each workstation (computer) must be customized individually. Once your Workstation Management settings have been saved, you will not need to set these again unless the station's default internet browser has its cookies deleted. This can happen through routine maintenance, security settings, or a computer restart. Access Workstation Management from the  Actions menu in each Kiosk.
