 Disable right click group policy windows server 2016


To disable right-click functionality using Group Policy on Windows Server 2016, you can follow these steps:

 

1. Open Group Policy Management Console:

   Press `Win + R` to open the Run dialog.

   Type `gpmc.msc` and press Enter.

 

2. Create a new Group Policy Object (GPO) or edit an existing one:

   In the left pane, expand the forest and domain, and navigate to the desired organizational unit (OU) or domain where you want to apply the policy.

   Right-click on the OU or domain, and select "Create a GPO in this domain, and Link it here" to create a new GPO or right-click on an existing GPO and select "Edit" to modify an existing one.

 

3. Navigate to the User Configuration:

   In the Group Policy Management Editor, navigate to `User Configuration -> Policies -> Administrative Templates -> Windows Components -> File Explorer`.

 

4. Find and configure the policy:

   Look for a policy named "Remove File Explorer's default context menu" and double-click on it.

 

5. Configure the policy settings:

   Set the policy to "Enabled".

   In the "Options" section, click on "Show" to display the context menu items you want to remove.

   Add "Context Menu" to the list of items.

 

6. Apply the policy:

   Close the Group Policy Management Editor.

 

7. Update Group Policy on client machines:

   Run `gpupdate /force` in the command prompt on the client machines, or wait for the Group Policy to be applied during the next update cycle.

 

After applying these settings, users on the affected machines should no longer be able to right-click and access the context menu on the desktop or File Explorer. Keep in mind that modifying group policies can have a significant impact on the user experience, so it's recommended to test the changes in a controlled environment before deploying them to production.
