Is there away to disable the vmview client v3.1.2 minimize button?

[TSher]

Hi, I work in a school environment. I have followed the excellent advice on making vmware view a shell. The only problem is the minimize button still works and you lose the client if a student presses it. It is necessary for us before we can roll out the solution to 500 thin clients to have this button disabled. Is there a reg entry or something similar?

Many tanks for any advice you can offer.

Hi,

you might want to adjusting the GPO's that are listed in the View Admin manual pages 182-182

Enable the shade and Pin the Shade

Hope that helps

Thank you for the advice that has worked. It however leads to another problem with USB pens. When a USB pen is put in it closes down the client and goes to the thin client. I have put a post up.

Thanks for the help
