Re: Multi User Shell(HKH)

Hkh,

Ok. Now it is a bit more clear. At least we know you want to use Explorer Shell for both type of users.

Why can't you restrict the Explorer Shell UI?
What exactly you couldn't restrict?

If you want to prohibit user access to Control panel just set [HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer],
"NoControlPanel"=dword:1 registry value in that particular user account's registry branch.

Assuming you've got ewfmgr.exe under c:\Windows\system32 directory, you can hide the entire system drive than with
[HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer],"NoDrive"=dword value. Just set it up properly (search google or
msdn for proper values of this key) to hide the C: drive.
If you still need the user to access some data files you can create another partition on your target device storage and mount it
with D: or else drive letter. User will have access to it.

The above is just an example of what you can accomplish playing with NT/XP group policies. You can certainly do much more then that.
Just get familiar with the various policies.
