Re: Task Manager Lost Shutdown command in the menue Bar

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

NoClose removes access to Stand By, Hibernate, Turn Off, Restart and Log
Off (User Name) from the Shut Down menu in Task Manager, but leaves the
menu.

If XP Pro use Group Policy...
Remove and prevent access to the Shut Down command

If not Pro...
Open the Registry Editor...
Start | Run | Type: regedit | Click OK |
Navigate to...
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
Set NoClose to 0.

Also...
NoClose

sundancer <sundancer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> hunted and pecked:
Until recently, I had a shutdown menu item between the View and Help Menu
items. I do not know when it disapeared but it had to be while I was
trying to get the ATI Vidio card Multimedia Console working. (Still
refuses to Install). Anyway when the computer refused to respond, I
clicked on the Tray Icon to bring up task Manager to click on the
Shutdown Menu and it was no longer there. What happened?
