What GPO setting(s) will disable/Remove "Run as different user" when you hold down the shift key? You can use this Group Policy setting so they do not invoke it by moving the the file they need to access on to the network to invoke runas. User Configuration \ Windows Components \ Windows Explorer \ Do Not Request Alternate Credentials Registry Entry to Add to disable GUI RunAs - Distribute with login script using a batch file to import registries. Merge or import norunas.reg to Registry silently: regedit -s norunas.reg NORUNAS.BAT @ECHO OFF title script > nul net use X: \\server\share > nul X: > nul regedit -s X:\norunas.reg > nul net use x: /delete > nul Exit NORUNAS.REG Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\Explorer] "HideRunAsVerb"=dword:00000001 Unfortunately batch files do not support the UNC variables. The nul's keep the user from seeing the activity, and title > nul prevents them from seeing the name of the batch executing so they can't search for it.
