Previously, from the Teacher Console, you could choose Restrict-->Clear Desktop and have all the applications close. This no longer works the same way. Here's some updated information regarding this topic.
If the “Clear Desktop” function
is being selected it will not close out any applications, but will minimize
everything on the student machines to show the desktop. If the students have
applications running that are on the blocked applications list and the teacher
turns on her application limiting function, this should close the applications.
If they are using the “Clear
Desktop” function then nothing actually is closed. It used to work that
way but there was apparently an overwhelming request to change it due to
massive data loss on student projects when applications were abruptly closed by
the teachers.
