How can use Desktop Authority to replace Start Menu and replace user's Taskbar

I want to set the Start Menu and user's Taskbar to the company standard at logon? Am using Desktop Authority latest version 11.? and Windows Enterprise.

Hello,

To set these options you can try using the Group Policy Template and the ADMX template file called startmenu.admx. I normally use the information on this site https://admx.help/?Category=Windows_10_2016&Policy=Microsoft.Policies.StartMenu::PowerButtonAction as a reference.

You will need to download the Microsoft templates from this site https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=102157 install the package, import the startmenu.admx to the DA Manager, set the options you need, and test with one machine. In case you are not familiar with the import process, please review our article called, How to add or import ADM and ADMX template files to Group Policy Templates, link: support.quest.com/.../

Kind regards,

Jorge C.

To replace the Start Menu and Taskbar with a company-standard layout using Desktop Authority version 11 on Windows Enterprise, you can leverage the Desktop Authority's "User Management" feature to deploy custom Start Menu and Taskbar XML layout files at user logon. These layout files should be created in advance using Windows LayoutModification.xml schema and then applied via Group Policy or logon scripts managed by Desktop Authority. Much like how metacares ensures consistent, professional device repair across all service centers, deploying standardized UI settings ensures a uniform and efficient user experience across your organization’s computers.
