Hi Sergey,
I think there are many ways for you to control windows in programming. And
the windows APIs are very powerful.
For your question:
1) Preventing a user from rebooting computer:
You can process WM_QUERRYENDSESSION message
in your window's wndproc. Return false if you do not want to reboot.
2) Invoke Task Manager:
The task manager is a application named "taskmgr.exe" in
C:\windows\system32\
directory, you can invoke this exe with some windows api function such as
shellexecute().
3) Activating Task bar:
You may use FindWindow("Shell_TrayWnd", null) to find the task bar's
handle, then you can
use the ShowWindow() function to show or hide the task bar.
And just as Star Fleet Admiral Q said , the Group Policy Editor provided by
Microsoft Windows is powerful too. You can type "gpedit.msc" in "Run"
dialog to invoke it.
Hope it helps.
