How can I do to disable task switching under Windows XP when my labWindow's application is running ?

I would like to forbid other windows applications to be activate when my labwindow's application is running. Labwindow Help proposes to modify registry under Win 2000, but I can't find it.

You're right, it was changed somewhere with microsoft's updates, I've defenately used it on Win2K before and the specific field is not available on my current registy fields under win2k.

There should be an entry called shell under

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]

there's a new field theer however

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\AutorunsDisabled]

and under that "Shell"="Explorer.exe"

To disable the task manager add this line to the registry:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\taskmgr.exe]
"Debugger"=""
