A file only opens in kiosk mode when opening with accounts that are not
full access accounts.

Hold the shift key (option key on Mac) while opening to get the password
dialog.

If it doesn't open with a master password, then you likely stripped out
full access accounts when you created the runtime.

Many thanks for your help but it looks like i have stripped out the
permissions when I created the the file years ago

Or you've forgotten or never set a master password. Either way, you're
unfortunately stuck. :o(
