How do I set a custom launcher with the navigation bar using Knox Configure

Very Important : You need to ensure that you perform the steps below correctly, or your device may enter a boot loop.

Prerequisite
• The custom launcher you select must be a launcher application.
• To specify an application as a launcher, include the following below text string in its manifest.xml file.

"<category android:name="android.intent.category.HOME" />"

In KNOX configure, you need to set a custom launcher on your device with the Settings app and navigation bar:

1 In your KNOX configure console, under " Profiles " → select the " profile or create a profile ".
2 At the " Select apps and widgets " page select the " custom launcher application ".
3 Under " Applications & content " → Disable the usage of other applications, enter "com.sec.android.app.launcher".
4 Click " Save " and assign " your devices " to the profile.

Your device can now use a custom launcher without Kiosk mode.
