The "correct" version for Windows 7 is as shown below: HWND hStartBtn = FindWindowEx(NULL, NULL, MAKEINTATOM(0xC017), TEXT("Start")) What I need is a method that only disables the Start menu, just like the code I reproduced above does in XP. That method only works if the whole Taskbar is disabled first. I have already tried the method that uses FindWindowEx with 0xC017 as its third parameter and then tries to disable that window. Using "Start Killer" won't work because it doesn't actually disable the Start button, just hides it (users can still use hotkeys to pull up the Start menu). Hiding the Taskbar along with the Start button is not an option. The Start button must be disabled (not just hidden), and the remainder of the Taskbar must still be visible and usable. If (hStartButton) ShowWindow(hStartButton, FALSE) įor a public-access computer configuration, I need to be able to do this on Windows 7.

HStartButton = FindWindowEx(hTray, NULL, TEXT("Button"), NULL) On Windows XP, it was possible to disable the Start button with the following code: hTray = FindWindow (TEXT("Shell_TrayWnd"), NULL)
