Items that appear on the dock are called as login items. This document explains on the steps involved in adding/removing Login Items to computers. Administrators can choose to configure the login items, which need to be mounted/removed when the user logs on. Applying this configuration will set the login items as default. When this configuration is applied, users will not be able to modify the login items.
