Try removing the Users group from Shut down the system policy at: Computer Configuration | Windows Settings | Security Settings | Local Policies | User Rights Assignments
[cid:image001.png@01CE02E9.87DA76C0] Note that this is the default on servers, so this policy has been "tested" and shouldn't break anything on your Dev box. -Aakash From: Don Kuhlman [mailto:drkuhl...@yahoo.com] Sent: Monday, February 4, 2013 9:19 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Disable the Shutdown/Restart button on Windows 8 when RDP Hi folks. We built a Windows 8 vm for some dev testing. I wanted to disable the Shutdown/Restart/hibernate button when non-admin users are logged in through RDP. I found the links that show the local Group policy option that is supposed to do this, but it's not working. I tried to enable it and then logged in as a non-admin user, but the button and options are still there. This is the local policy setting I found and enabled - User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Start Menu & Taskbar "Disable and remove the Shut Down command" I did some other searching and found a registry change that looks like the same setting done by the group policy - hkcu and hklm \software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\policies\explorer NoClose = 1 Any thoughts?
