Prevents users from starting and stopping tasks manually.
This setting removes the Run and End Task items from the context menu that appears when you right-click a task. As a result, users cannot start tasks manually or force tasks to end before they are finished.
Note: This setting appears in the Computer Configuration and User Configuration folders. If both settings are configured, the setting in Computer Configuration takes precedence over the setting in User Configuration.
Fix:
(1) GPO: User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Task Scheduler!Prevent Task Run or End
(2) REG: HKEY_USERS\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Task Scheduler5.0!Execution
