Login Process

To access the login screen, press CTRL+ALT+ENTER using a keyboard plugged into the computer inside the kiosk. 

This key combination works from almost anywhere on the kiosk, including when error messages are on screen. You should see “Please wait…” appear before the login screen appears. Note that this will fail if the kiosk is still booting up.

On machines that are Offline (all kiosks are), the login screen for Redbox Desktop will accept any credentials with no modification required. This appears to be an intentional backdoor in the software to allow easy maintenance operations on the kiosk, even if the kiosk doesn't have an active connection to Redbox's services.
