Windows 10: Disable right click app icon on taskbar in Win 10

Disable "Remove access to the context menus for the taskbar" using GPO and registry to block the right click taskbar function. However, when right click on app icon, there is still option to launch the app. Click on it and it runs. We don't want right click icon on taskbar have any response. No such issue when apply the policy in Win 11. Appreciate any idea for this issue. Thanks.
