Disable shutdown

Issue #1737 new
Detran created an issue

In bigbox I hit shutdown instead of exit an annoying account of times, while I see how this would be useful for someone using bixbox as an OS, for someone who simply wants to exit to windows it's an unnecessary annoyance accidentally pressing shutdown or restart, and I would appreciate a way of disabling any buttons that turns off my PC.

    yeah, i agree there should be a way to remove the possibility of shutting down (maybe there already is). but even for those who want to have it there, i would think at least there would be a confirmation required for shutdown. if there isn't, it should be added.

    I'm also seeing this as an issue. I'd like to see the ability to enable/disable options for the following, because as Detran09 said, we're not all using Big Box as an OS:

    • Lock (if no lock pin is set, why is the lock option displayed?)
    • Sleep
    • Reboot
    • Shut Down
    • "Licensed to ______" (I know it's licensed to me, who else would it be licensed to? also I just don't like my name being displayed like that on the Exit screen and would prefer it move to the About screen.)

    It would also be nice to have toggles to disable stuff like "Open Folder", "Open Images Folder", "Open EmulatorName". Aside from being able to clean up the UI/optionally remove clutter, I have no other requests. :)
