I don't think the customer wants to replace the shell with a web browser.

Hey Alex, 

 

I will pipe in since Joe and I are working on the same project. That was our
next step. However, the customer wants the logoff and disconnect (not
shutdown in this case) icons to appear exactly as the do with the standard
Start Menu items. After doing some research, we have not found a way to hack
the existing icons, or, put replacement icons in the same place. When you
delve into the system controlled portion of the Start Menu you end up going
down a rabbit hole in which nothing is at it seems anymore !!

Joe,

 

Why don't you remove Logoff and Shutdown from the start menu, then replace
them with shortcuts to a script(s) that handles your app then shuts the
machine down or logs the user off?

It a published desktop  Also, it is a script that is running,  the problem
is when users select logoff Windows closes the script before it closes the
application it launches.  I need windows to close the application first and
wait for the script to complete.

Publish a wrapper script that starts your app, then closes it. That way,
Windows is terminating your wrapper script.

Hello,

 

Does anyone know how to change the logoff process?  It seems that W2k3
terminates the applications then runs the logoff script.  I need to run a
logoff script first in order to shutdown an application in the proper order.
If I let W2k3 terminate the application, it shutdown incorrectly.

 

Any ideas?

 

Joe
