    Disabling / Enabling the Start Menu Button

    I found this post

    http://forums.codeguru.com/showthrea...s-Start-Button

    I implemented the functionality and testing it with Windows XP and found that even though the start button is not visible, if you keep clicking in the area, the start menu options will pop up.

    I am looking for a solution in VB6 that will disable/enable hide/show the start menu button in Windows XP, Windows 7 and Windows 10.

    Any suggestions?


    **** UPDATE ****


    I added an link to a .rar that is a little program that can demonstrate the problem.. This happens on Windows Xp, 7 and 10. When you run the program you will need to disable the desktop, hide the taskbar and then disable the start button. Then click around where the start button is, keep clicking around the area and you will see the start button menu pop up. Something about disabling the desktop, hiding the taskbar and disabling the start button causes this behavior.
