I have got a gaming software and i want only this software to be accessible to viewers once windows boot up so that no user can accidentally format the system or remove it. Off course there would be access to windows function but through a password protected login or similar. can anyone guide me how to go about it. Any suggestions are appreciated

very vague question. what is "gaming software"?

programming language? platform?

other users can be given a limited account where they will have only read and execute rights. see control panel if u r using windows..if u r using unix-unixlike, then please tell specifically which os and what program is it. chmod/chroot will help u in that case.
