Only by making sure that the user logging into the system is not a member of the Administrators group on the local system. Non-administrators will not see the Force disconnect option

  • AND: Non-Administrators can not log into a server at all per default policy. That simple. Vicious circle - the request is not sensibible from a design point of view.

  • @balizeiro on non-Domain Controllers you can still let non-admins lot in with RDP, just add them to the Remote Desktop Users group

  • The problem is that there's only one local admin user that everyone uses

    @balizeiro Everyone using the (same) admin account is certainly a problem. One you should start correcting yesterday. You would generally not want to disable the ability for an admin to force-disconnect other users to free up a RDP session (if you need to log in to fix something and all the connections are used by people idling or whose connection died & hasn't been closed yet you want to be able to kick those people off to get your session...)
