GPO To Disable Share

[MrFrostmaul]

Hi,

Recently Rolled out Office 2013 to the entire school, so far going good apart from the staff usual moans and groans of change.

 

Trying to disable the Share Tab under File (http://i.imgur.com/wwTPqYb.png) via GPO, I have managed to do everything else but cannot find something to do this.

 

Anyone know how to do this?

 

Thanks

@MrFrostmaul - I know you didn't get any responses here but I wondered if you found a solution to this?

Hi, haven't had any luck with this so far. Going to be looking into it in more depth soon.

Do the following help:

 

Customizing Office 2013 backstage - Visual Studio Office Development (VSOD) Support Team - Site Home - MSDN Blogs

I'm guessing it might be a case of customising default template?

Anyone know how to do this?

To disable the entire Share tab in the Backstage View you need to enter the relevant control ID of the tab - in this case 18147 - in the Disable commands GPO:

 

[b]User Configuration[/b] \ [b]Administrative Templates[/b] \ [color="#FF0000"][b]Microsoft Word 2013[/b][/color] \ [b]Disable Items in User Interface[/b] \ [b]Custom[/b]

 

Note. Each Office program has its own Disable commands GPO so you will need to do the same for Excel, PowerPoint etc.
