If your Windows IoT device has a touchscreen, users have the option to swipe from the edge of a screen to invoke a system user interface. Depending on the direction of the swipe, the action center, tablet mode or taskbar can appear.
One of the ways you can go about managing the screen edge swipe functionality in Windows IoT Enterprise is by using the Group Policy Editor.
The following steps outline how to enable/disable the policy:
Note
By disabling this policy setting, users will not be able to invoke any system UI by swiping in from any screen edge.
If you enable or do not configure this policy setting, users will be able to invoke system UI by swiping in from the screen edges.
The easiest way to verify if the policy is in effect is to restart the explorer process or to reboot after the policy is applied. Try to swipe from the right edge of the screen and evaluate the behavior. The desired result is for Action Center to not be invoked by the swipe. You can also enter tablet mode and attempt to swipe from the top of the screen to rearrange, that functionality will also be disabled.
