Answer 4

You almost can. Make sure you add that program in startup so that whenever it boots up, it will start that program automatically. also create new user for that laptop with restricted access so no one can install / uninstall or change any settings.

Answer 5

Of course you will allow this computer specific user name with password on your Server in Windows Firewall.

Then you will map a different Drive letter specific for this laptop.  And create a new SHARED FOLDER-ProgramName on that Drive letter.

Then drag a copy of that file you want to share, or a shortcut into the special shared folder.

Then give access to only that one drive letter to the laptop.

Answer 6

If the laptop is windows then put a shortcut to the program in the startup folder, or, start - all programs - startup, then remove the keyboard and mouse.
