Remove the Undock Button from Start menu
I have a laptop with a port replicator.
Microsoft, in their infinite wisdom put a very large button in the Start menu to “undock” the laptop. This causes problems no end, becuase it disconnects networks, keynoards etc that are plugged in through the Docking Station/Port Replicator.
The easiest way to disable this button is to add a special registry entry:
Go to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
Add the following DWORD: NoStartMenuEjectPC and set the DECIMAL value to 1 (enabled).
Log off then back on, the button will disappear.
