Re: Deleting Windows XP/2000 Defualt Games
This can definity be done by locking down the users start menu options. But im no GPO expert so im sure someone will post which policies to enable/disable. This link can be helpful if you are looking for a specific policy to enable. You can use the find tool to search for a policy.

You can setup WINNT.SIF to do so during Windows installation.
There is no way in Windows 2000 to prevent access to games in Windows 2000. Windows XP: If you want to prevent them from running you can use Software Restriction Policy for Windows XP Clients as part of group policy. http://www.microsoft.com/technet/pro.../rstrplcy.mspx |
