🖥️ Configure Windows Shell Launcher

🔧 What it does

This script configures Shell Launcher to replace explorer.exe with a custom shell for specific users:

• Checks if the Shell Launcher license is enabled.
• Sets the default shell (explorer.exe) with a restart action if closed.
• Assigns a custom shell (c:\exploit\supervision.cmd) to user w_supervision.
• Enables Shell Launcher and verifies configuration.
• Optionally allows removing custom shells or disabling Shell Launcher.

---

✅ Prerequisites

• Run as Administrator.
• Requires Windows IoT Enterprise or an edition with Shell Launcher feature enabled.
• The account w_supervision must exist.
• Custom shell (c:\exploit\supervision.cmd) must be present.

⚠️ Notes

• Default exit actions available:
  • 0 → Restart shell
  • 1 → Restart device
  • 2 → Shutdown device
• Changing the default shell affects all users without a custom shell.
• Always test configuration on a lab machine before production.
• To remove or disable Shell Launcher, uncomment:

  $ShellLauncherClass.RemoveCustomShell($Admins_SID)
  $ShellLauncherClass.RemoveCustomShell($Cashier_SID)
  $ShellLauncherClass.SetEnabled($FALSE)
