It will disable the properties item both from the file menu and from the right-click menu of the item. For this, go to start > run menu, enter regedit and navigate to the registry path listed below. If any of the subkeys \windows\task scheduler5.0 does not exist, create it as explained below. Then, create a dword value draganddrop in the right panel. Now, right-click and modify the value to "1" to enable restriction. However, if you want to get back to the original state and disable restriction, change the value to "0".
