I am looking for a solution to this issue as well. 

It is unfortunate that features are added to the Chromebooks without an option to manage them.

I need to disable them as well to assist our teachers with classroom management. 

I'm looking for a solution to this as well.

I'm looking for a solution to this also!

This needs to be addressed for the classroom environment especially. Is there still no solution after more than three years of this feature being enabled?

I have yet to find a resolution.

The kids use this option to misguide the teachers. 
One desk is more then enough for the kids and woudn't harm their work.

We are desperately looking for a solution to this also...

We need a solution for this soon please!!!!

I would love an option to control this feature as well. Please Google find us a fix for this!

GOOGLE, come on! Give those using Workspace for Education the option to DISABLE multiple desktops in ChromeOS. It is breaking our filtering products such as Securly.   If you're going to implement "features" that not all of us want, at least give Admins the ability to turn them off...

I know that this has been a complaint for more than 3 years now.

Google is showing us that they're not a useful resource anymore.  At this point, I'm recommending to my school, a Microsoft/Windows-based solution.

Please fix this! How many people will have to ask? Our children maybe need to focus on max 4/5 tabs. We don't need multiple desktops. Also, please let us control the accessibility features "switch access" and "facial control". Most schools don't need these features as well. We can already turn off the rest of the accessibility features. https://www.googlecloudcommunity.com/gc/Feature-Ideas/Turn-off-Switch-Access/idi-p/80992

Can't get in. It says access denied.

Any update to this?
