How can I configure logoff to show on the Start menu in Windows 2000?

A. This is normally done by selecting 'Taskbar & Start Menu...' from the Settings menu of the Start button, select the 'Start Menu Options' and check the ' Display Logoff' option.

You can also accomplish this by directly editing the registry:

  1. Start the registry editor (regedit.exe)
  2. Move to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced
  3. From the Edit menu select New - DWORD value and enter a name of StartMenuLogoff (if it does not exist)
  4. Double click the new value and set to 1
  5. Close the registry editor
  6. Logoff and then logon
