Is this for the Start Menu or the Shutdown Dialog??? The keys have been
added to both HKLM and HKCU, the server has been restarted and nothing on
the Start Menu. The link you sent for the GPO is for the Shutdown Dialog
box.. I would like a disconnect button next to the Logoff button on the
Start Menu for a Windows 2003 TS server running the XP style windows.

Note these registry settings could be either per user or per machine
settings. I've done it before on my server so I know it works. Just because
you set it back under the HKLM key doesn't mean that it is set back that way
in the users profile.

On the surface that makes you the Professor, but, these settings only remove
the disconnect option, they do not actually put the disconnect option on the
Start Menu when you "undo" the settings.
This might make you Gilligan!
We will have to discuss it in more detail at BriForum. I think your response
to "Ginger or Mary Ann" could elevate you back up !!

Why would you want to enable Remove Disconnect item from the Start menu?
To encourage users to log off instead of disconnecting.
Where do you enable Remove Disconnect?
Start, Programs, Administrative Tools, System Policy Editor

Under the Local Computer Policy\Computer Configuration\Administrative
Templates\Windows Components\Terminal Services folder look for Remove

That would make me the Professor....

No. It's like the Gilligan's Island episode where the crew thinks that a map
that has washed up onto shore gives directions on how to get off the island.
After unsuccessful attempts to leave the island via the map, the Professor
realizes that the people who made this map read from right to left, and so
in fact it is a map on how to get ON TO the island. They proved you simply
can't reverse the directions to get the opposite result.
Exact same thing here.
