Hi,
I need to prevent users from logging out of windows or locking the screen, I found the registry entry to remove the logoff button but can remember how to disable the windows + L key combination. Had a google and couldn't find the answer :( I'm sure it’s incredibly simple but I can't find it.

Thanks in advance.

I think you can remove the option to lock the Computer using Group Polices. Not sure if that is what you are looking to do?

:idea:

Group policy doesnt exist in Home Edition

On home I think a program called "TweakUI" can do it.

Hi,
I downloaded TweakUI but can't seem to find the setting I need. It may be that I'm just blind :)

Sorry forgot to say I'm using XP in a work group setting. Don't suppose anyone knows exactly where the entire I need would be?

Don't worry found the answer :)

In the Group Policy (GP) setting . Click edit GP and expend
user configuration -> Administrative Templates -> System -> select
Ctrl+Alt+Del option -> double click Remove Lock Computer and select Enable.
Click OK and close Group Policy Editor.

I found this but it didn't seem to work until I also disabled fast user switching.

Thanks for the help :)
