Windows Today Screen: Disable Screen

March 16, 2010, 18:45 -

One more small tip:

to disable the today screen and prohibit a user from starting anything from there, simply change the following registry keys:

REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Today]
“Enabled”=dword:00000001

change this to

REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Today]
“Enabled”=dword:00000000

But be warned, the today screen will not refresh and so the background will not refresh. If you leave (minimize) an app, the screen may partially not refresh.
