I'm curious how everyone is handling this if you're publishing full desktops. Since there isn't a way to modify the visibility of any of these areas with group policy. Have you found some way to edit file/directory NTFS permissions to accomplish selective visibility? Do you just allow it? Do you remove read access to "C:\Windows\ImmersiveControlPanel\SystemSettings.exe" so it can't be launched? There is mostly junk in there, but I'd like to offer up some areas to users, mostly Personalization options, like color, start, and taskbar settings. These are areas that you can't configure in the "classic" control panel.
I'm not in production yet and with Server 2019 coming out soon, I may just wait for it to see how that differs.
