    Amend the stop button to close session in Vista

    Hello everyone,
    Here I do some research on the net to change the stop button Sign on Vista. Unfortunately I found nothing. There is everything you want to change off, suspend, hibernate ... In my opinion it should be possible to amend it in the registry but I do not know what key or even modify what value for it. I want to change the stop button to close session on my work because we can not turn off the PC so that the department can do updates. Have you got a solution to this problem?

    Thank you

    You can prohibit the shutdown and reboot using the security strategy.
    It is a way to circumvent.

    You can settle on the buttons in front of the tower, to pause on the keyboard or the menu by standby (standby / hybrid / extended) in vista and xp, but against, to close the session.
