I am using Windows 8 with the 8.1 upgrade (hate W8) so found Classic Shell to give me back the "start menu"; would like the option to remove the log off & locked buttons as it can be done on the classic setting - I am using the Windows 7 style setting in classic shell & there is no setting to disable these items.

Thanks for any help.

You can use the group policy "Shutdown menu items" to select which menu items are available in the Windows 7 style. For that you need to install the group policy files that you can find in the folder where you installed Classic Shell.

1. Extract files from C:\Program Files\Classic Shell\PolicyDefinitions.zip to C:\Windows\PolicyDefinitions.
2. Start Gpedit.msc (Group Policy Editor)
3. Go to Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Classic Shell -> Classic Start Menu -> Shutdown menu items.
4. Follow the instructions given in the policy's explanation and you will be able to customize the Shutdown submenu for Windows 7 style.
