build 9374

Build 9374 is a pre-release version of Windows Blue, an early update to Windows 8. Based on available information, this build introduces a Kiosk Mode feature, which allows a device to be locked down to a single Windows 8-style application. This mode can be configured in PC settings, enabling apps to launch automatically at login and restricting the user account to that app only. The build does not appear to include many other major changes. Discussions around build 9374 focus on its role in the development of Windows Blue and the potential enterprise and public-facing uses of Kiosk Mode for dedicated devices.
