Hi
I'm in Audit Mode.
I wish that all new users of Windows 7 SP1 had no icon on their taskbar and no link in their Start menu.
So, how do I do this?
Thanks
Bye

During the installation of Windows 7 SP1, I went immediately in Audit mode.
So, after I customized Windows removing the default icons and links from the taskbar and the Start menu, I wrote this Unattend.xml file
and I put it in the %WINDIR%Panther directory.
Then, I wrote the sysprep /generalize /oobe /reboot command in a Command Prompt window.
Now, I've noticed that new users still have the default icons and link on the taskbar and the Start menu. How come?
How do I prevent this?
Thanks

In other words, inserting the TaskbarLinks and StartPanelLinks statements in an unattend.xml file, they are used to add icons or links to the taskbar or Start menu.
Now, if I wanted to create a default profile for all users when the taskbar and Start menu are completely free of elements, how should I do this?
