From what I have read you can not disable tabs like that directly. You do have few alternatives.

1. First Alternative. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/252t3cec.aspx

2. Second alternative is there may be some third party add on that you can install something like this one.

But this is for old versions of .Net I believe, you can search to see if anything latest is available.
