Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB 2016
I've created a startup item that I anticipate the students who use the PC's will be tempted to disable. (It prevents moving the position of icons on the desktop - DeskLock.) How can I disable a certain user from disabling their Startup items in Task Manager? The students use a single shared local account.
I imagine this would be a very common need, especially in school environments/computer labs, but I surprisingly can't find a single result on the subject in my Google searches.
A Windows-native solution is preferred (i.e. Group Policy, Registry) to prevent memory usage, but am very open to any viable solution.
I saw Disable task manager for restricted user on Windows 7 Home Premium that I might look more into for Windows 10 & Googled ways to disable Task Manager in Windows 10 through Group Policy Editor, but I'd prefer the students still be able to access the Processes tab of Task Manager so they can 'End Now' hanging processes.
(Even though disabling Task Manager through Group Policy is a viable solution for me, I'm still going to go ahead and post this for the sake of the online community, in case there's a way to only disable the Startup tab functionality in Task Manager.)
