Hi Ang, I use this registry key for this: ----- Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Infodelivery\Restrictions] "NoManualUpdates"=dword:00000001 ----- This does not remove or hide the menu, but users get a message that the menu has been disabled by the admin if they click on it You could use Group Policy Preferences to roll out this key to users (if your not using any 3rd party tools to do this) Cheers, Ben On 27-03-2013 18:58, "thin-digest@xxxxxxxxxxxxx" <thin-digest@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: >Msg: #1 in digest >From: Angela Smith <angela_smith9@xxxxxxxxxxx> >Subject: [THIN] Hide Tools/Synchronize option? >Date: Wed, 27 Mar 2013 20:19:22 +1100 > >Hi > > >Is anyone aware of a >way to hide the Tools/Synchronize option in Windows Explorer?
