Summary: Option to disable deleting of movies and pictures by pressing "0".

Area: Movies, Pictures

Description:
Now it is possible to hide the FileMenu or protect it with a pincode.
In movies and pictures it is possible to delete a file simply by pressing "0". I don't want that my friends delete anything on my pc when they are using MP.

It would be cool, if there would be some additional checkboxes in config to disable the delete feature or make it pin protected.

kind regards

Can't you just go into Configuration, General/Keys and sounds and change?
Should be a delete-entry in the My pictures section that you can remove (and in other sections as well).

That's a really good idea, but it's tooo simple.

Will give it a try.
