Force APP to stay Active(like a virus)

[Shingi]

Hi Guys,

This is an oddball, but how do I force an app to stay active. Like disabling the x button on that app. The app I want to stay active all the time is Adobe Acrobat. We use it all the time, but old habits always press the X button on the corner instead of the closing the file, so in essense I like the APP to not close like some virus are that just force that app to stay active. Can this be done through windows or I need some special software.

This should really be in the software forum, as it's got nothing to do with Windows operating systems. You could try using the Adobe Customization Wizard to modify the installer via a transform file (MST file) to achieve your goal, but you're not going to be removing the X button unless Adobe decides to give you their source code (which will be never).

Long ago I used a win9x tweak that let me do it to any application that used standard win frameworks.
