Hello,

Also SiteKiosk 9.3 is out of support (the current SiteKiosk version is 9.6) there is no known issue when using SiteKiosk on a supported operating system or even with domain user accounts.

As it works in “Run once” mode it must apply to an issue with the domain user (e.g. user restrictions)-
A black screen usually means that shell replacement is activated but SiteKiosk.exe (the SiteKiosk Browser) doesn’t start.

You should check the Windows event log for any warnings or errors at the time span the SiteKiosk Browser should start or find out what has changed since SiteKiosk has started within rhe domain user account (e.g. domain policies or antivirus updates).
