Remove Logoff on the Start Menu

Requirements: At least Microsoft Windows 2000

Location: User Configuration\Start Menu and Taskbar\


Description:
Removes the "Log Off <username>" item from the Start menu and prevents users from restoring it.

If you enable this setting, the Log Off <username> item does not appear in the Start menu. This setting also removes the Display Logoff item from Start Menu Options. As a result, users cannot restore the Log Off <username> item to the Start Menu.

If you disable this setting or do not configure it, users can use the Display Logoff item to add and remove the Log Off item.

This setting affects the Start menu only. It does not affect the Log Off item on the Windows Security dialog box that appears when you press Ctrl+Alt+Del, and it does not prevent users from using other methods to log off.
