Lock and sleep "button"

[trickson]

How do I get rid of the lock and sleep button only? I just want the shut down and log off button yet for the life of me can not find any thing to do this.
Thank you for you help.

Okay so no one knows how to do this?

I know you can do most of this with the Group policy editor using the mmc (Microsoft Management Console) plug-in.

Maybe, this how to will help:
Remove Options from the Windows 7 Shutdown Menu [How To]
And, a couple of other links for reference:
Open Group Policy as an MMC snap-in
Group Policy Settings for Start Menu and Taskbar

Got it this far. Still unable to find where the "lock" setting is. But I am getting there.

To do this you must open the reg editor as "Run as Administrator".

Go to the key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE \Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
Right click and create a new DWORD value and name it "DisableLockWorkstation" (without the quotations) and; then make sure the value is set to 1.

It works... I just tested it.

It was part of the answer in this link that Kreij posted.

You can use GodMode from win7 , work in win8 .

To enter "GodMode" one need only create a new folder and then rename the folder to the following:

GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

Yeah I have GOD mode on mine.

I tried this and it did not work. I will try once more.

Go to the key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE \Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
Right click and create a new DWORD value and name it "DisableLockWorkstation" (without the quotations) and; then make sure the value is set to 1.

Glad you got it worked out.
No problem, trickson... We all get distracted from time to time.
