Hey, nevermind this thread. I connected with another level of support and they said the option I'm looking for was removed for a few reasons and pressure from AV companies. I'll find another way to deal with it.

Jan 24, 2014 of this thread, your reply to "Jamie" is what I'm looking for and appears to be unavailable now.
See the 2 photos attached for the difference in options. The ability to hide the stop host should be an option and the exit button removed, or make the same option to stop the ability to exit via a right-click.
There was no "exit" in previous versions and this has complicated things for me because I have clients who fiddle with things they see on the screen, including the host icon in the tray.

AND THIS IS THE NEW INTERFACE OPTIONS:


This would help me with those I assist tremendously as it would save reboot time or guiding my client with some how-to get the host back up and running.

Are you following me here? Thx

Thanks for your reply.
So, I'm hearing you say that an end user (e.g my dad) can stop the host by right-clicking the tray icon and pressing exit if he is in the admin group on his PC. THAT is what I want to avoid happening.
I want the host to run unless the settings protection password is used to then close or restart the host. I used to be able to set that criteria during the host installation or .MSI creation process.
I DON'T want my dad to disable the host, but I DO want him to be the admin of his own PC so he can do daily admin-like tasks just as any user would likely do.
To be clear, I could make this happen in previous versions of the host on setup or even adjust the setting to make it so after setup. I cannot do that anymore with the latest version.

The option to stop or hide host has been removed from the new version. How do we keep a client from stopping the host now??
