This would still allow the user to launch explorer.exe. I think this is a
bit of an odd request, anyway. I guess if nothing else, you could change
permissions on explorer.exe, but, to the OP, why not protect the data you
don't want the user to get to instead of trying to prevent ways of getting
to it? Denying access to a program that can be used to access data is not a
security concept. You should protect the data itself.
