9399 2001-03-01 09:27:00 I wish to clean up my start button - specifically remove 'Favourites' and the 'Log Off' selections from appearing.

Presumably I must attack the registry - but which files where?

Many thanks.

Start the Registry Editor by going to Start, Run, and typing

RegEdit

Navigate to
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Policies\Explorer. In the right window pane, right-click in the white area and
select New, DWORD Value. Name the value NoFavoritesMenu. Then
double-click this new icon and enter the number 1 in the Value box,
and click OK. Exit the Registry Editor and restart Windows, and your
Favorites will be gone from the Start menu. If you ever want to revert
to having the Favorites on the Start menu, you can navigate back to
this point, double-click the NoFavoritesMenu icon, and enter a value
of 0.
