Disable Start Menu?

[mike21pr]

hello, i would like to know if there is a hack or registry tweak that would disable the start menu? with all the full filled interfaces available, i dont need it anymore. can anyone point me to the right direction?

do you want to disable the menu itself or to hide it?
there is no point in actually disabling it.

Find the window to get the handle using Findwindow and make it disable using api ( like on window mobile EnableWindow(hwnd, FALSE)...

i think the same approach is on every OS .

hide it actually, what i actually want is so that when i press the start button, nothing happens. or at least prevent the menu from appearing.

hehe. i must be missing something here.

you want to see the Start button... that is.. you want the taskbar to be visible.. but you want to click start, and that nothing will happen.

i fail to see why.
I can tell you how to hide the taskbar with the start button so that you get extra screen space if you don't need that part..

but why would you disable the start button? just trying to understand.

Don't press it?

And assign the hardware key to something else, assuming you have it.
