Im developing an ed-tech desktop application using Electron. I have to disable the change tab and change window shortcuts to prevent the students to move other windows and searching in the internet. I tried to do it with globalShortcut, but it's not working for me. Kindly help me to solve this issue will be grateful.

You can't do that with electron

I've not tried to disable those shortcuts but I think there is one solution for this.
Electron is providing "globalShortcut".
You can add listeners with globalShortcut on those shortcuts. Now whenever those keys were pressed the code block will execute which you have written on listeners. So you can now get focus on your window, etc...
I've not tried this thing, this is my assumption. I think this should be work.
@hollow galleon can you please give some suggestion on this ?

Kiosk mode
Kiosk mode is only filling the screen. I tried that as well, not working.
