I am in charge of a small group of children during computer activites time and want to lock or hide the menu so they won't change the setting by mistake. Can you show me?
Thanks again

Currently, 8start not check if the buttons are outside of the skin. Make a copy of skin.ini of the skin that you have applyed (for backup); edit in skin.ini the variable values that control the position and dimention of menu button in [Buttons] section: ... menu button left= menu button top= menu button right= menu button bottom=... you can set only a pixel (is very hard to found and click it) or you can set the position out of the dimention of bottom file. naturally if you do not want to see the menu button you'll need to edit bottom file with a graphics software

I pick your DID skin If I want to change the mouse click behavior for the Menu Button just to do a "Goodbye 8Start Launcher" and not showing anything else (Organize buttons, Settings ...), how do I do that? Thanks again

Currently all items in menu is listed.
This request is quite same as to password control 8start setting, noted.

Neat trick! It works well too.
Thanks for sharing
Do you know if we could have multiple killprocess? Maybe we could have it execute a batch file that have mutiple killprocess in it.
ie: kill process 8start.exe game1.exe
I would love to see all of your scripts being packaged together with a special 8Start Edition (called it 8Start Fabulous Fabio Edition), even the weather script made for Italy. Some user may find it handy to have things already preprogrammed.

You must make a text file with all commands killprocess a.exe killprocess b.exe ... then launch nircmd.exe with this parameter: script "filename.txt"
