I have a client that wants to set up a pretty restricted workstation for training and view safety videos. Don't think Kiosk mode is going to fly here as I suspect that want access to more than one program but greatly limited beyond that. Not sure of the programs just yet so I need a flexible solution probably limited to log in. No AD server just local users.

Who is the best software for this these days? I've not had a request for this in some time.
 
You could achieve this with Windows 10 Pro and local Group Policy. Here are a few to start you off.

User Configuration > Administrative Templates > System > Run only specified Windows applications
User Configuration > Administrative Templates > System > Prevent access to the command prompt
User Configuration > Administrative Templates > System > Logon/Logoff > Disable Task Manager

Make a standard (non-admin) account and apply these policies to it. Guide below on how to apply local GPO to a single user only.

Beat me to posting it. I found this last night. Probably going to be the way we handle this.
