Remove Toolbar Buttons

You can either remove toolbar buttons programmatically or using the ToolsFile.xml file:

Programmatically:

The second way to remove toolbar buttons is by using the provided RadEditor's Server-Side API and the Remove method of the Tools collection. You can hide the desired button with the following RemoveButton function:

C#
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
	if (!IsPostBack)
	{
		RadEditor1.EnsureToolsFileLoaded();
		RemoveButton("FindAndReplace");
		RemoveButton("Cut");
		RemoveButton("Copy");
		RemoveButton("Paste");
	}
}
public void RemoveButton(string name)
{
	foreach (Telerik.Web.UI.EditorToolGroup group in RadEditor1.Tools)
	{
		EditorTool tool = group.FindTool(name);
		if (tool != null)
		{
			group.Tools.Remove(tool);
		}
	}
} 			

You can see list the available tools in RadEditor by using the autocomplete feature of the Name EditorTool inner tag attribute (to show the dropdown use Ctrl+Space):

Using the ToolsFile.xml:

To remove a toolbar button from a toolbar, just open the ToolsFile.xml and delete its tag. For example, to remove the Cut, Copy and Paste buttons delete the respective tool tags below and save the ToolsFile.xml after that:

XML
<root>
   <tools name="MainToolbar" dockable="true" dockingZone="Top" enabled="true">
	  <tool name="Cut" />  
	  <tool name="Copy" />
	  <tool name="Paste" />
	  <tool name="PasteFromWord" />
	  <tool name="PastePlainText" />
	  <tool name="PasteAsHtml"  />
   </tools>
<root>
