I am trying to lock a windows workstation from an Asp.net website.

This is the code I was using: Lock Windows workstation programmatically in C#

It works when debugging on my local machine, but not when running on the server. Any idea why it isn't working?

I'm creating a program for school use as a kiosk application, and I want it to lock the computer when the website exits fullscreen or goes to another webpage to prevent students from accessing anything but the webpage. I know this isn't "foolproof" and there are ways around it - but I've successfully used it in normal C# desktop winforms in this setting.

Thank you!

That is probably a permission issue. You should tell us why it isn't working by checking the event log or your own log files. – Oguz Ozgul Apr 18 '20 at 17:52
@OguzOzgul Thank you. I'm new to this, so I'll figure out how to get into the log files on my web host. – Tyler Vandenberg Apr 18 '20 at 18:53
