Remote Desktop users have access to shutdown/restart, how disable these ?
Hi Mehrdad1993,
I applied a group policy includes only "Remove and prevent access to the Shut Down, Restart, Sleep, and Hibernate commands" is on User Configuration of Group Policy Management.
Also I used the policy on User Configuration, didn't on Computer Configuration.
You have to apply the policy to OU which includes users, not computers.

Hi JanRingos,
Thanks for your completion. When this is added to the policy I mentioned earlier, the result will be as follows in the command prompt.
@Mehrdad1993, is your problem completely solved?
default domain controller policy > Computer Configuration > Windows Settings > Security Settings > Local Policies > User Rights Assignment > Shut down the system
i add "everyone" and "users" to this policy and now users have access to shutdown and restart, with removing these two groups users will lost access to shutdown button.
this policy doesn't work with gpupdate /force command and server restart is needed.
now its time to try hasanemresatilmis solution.
Operation was successfully
Thank you All.
