I'm trying to set up a kiosk with a custom .exe as shell, and I'm aware that Shell Launcher is only available on Win10 Enterprise and Education, but even though I'm using a Pro version, I can still see it and activate it on my "Turn Windows Features On or Off".

So I wanted to see if it worked regardless and tried following the steps for a PowerShell script configuration for the Shell Launcher as instructed here. I activated Shell Launcher on the aforementioned window, and tried to run the script on PowerShell, but I got:

Shell Launcher license enabled is set to False
This device doesn't have required license to use Shell Launcher

Which was set to display if Shell Launcher couldn't be enabled.

All I want to know is whether this error was really caused by version incompatibility or by any other setup mistake on the code.

  • Have you tried to simply delete the boolean check, and see if the shell laucher will work, the check relies on SLC.dll returning enabled for EmbeddedFeature-ShellLauncher-Enabled so it's not a bug in the code.

  • @Ramhound thank you. Tried that, the script did run successfully but as I tried to log on to the account I had set to be the kiosk, the explorer shell wasn't replaced. I guess it really is a compatibility issue. Thanks anyway.
