URGENT ! Preventing access to Common Tasks in folders

[Guest theeldergeek]

We have an issue where a student has been able to "search active directory" by utilising the shortcut to such in the common tasks sidebar of the window they have open.

 

Clearly we need to be able to turn this off, as a matter of urgency, as it is revealing things we don't want students to see.

 

Can anyone please advise how this can be done in Group Policy?

 

We think it might mean invoking some sort of Classic view, but aren't sure.

 

Thanks in advance!
