"C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" -kiosk https://customername.simplyselfservice.de/login -- overscroll-history-navigation=0


Disable swiping

1. Enter the URL in Chrome:

chrome://flags/#overscroll-history-navigation
And on "Disabled".
Then click on "Relaunch".


If this point no longer exists:

chrome://settings/accessibility
Enter as URL and disable swipe gestures.


2. At CMD „regedit“ and enter in the Windows search bar:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\EdgeUI

If "EdgeUI" is not available under Windows, right click on Windows and click "New" > "Key", which then creates a subfolder. This subfolder is then called "EdgeUI".
Then click on "EdgeUI" right click and "DWORD32" with the name "AllowEdgeSwipe".
