  1. CTRL+ALT+L does not work - other keys do!


    Hi,I just bought a Lenovo P14s Gen5 AMD 3 weeks ago. But I noticed that the command CTRL+ALT+L does not work at all. L is not even taken into account. I tried multiple keyboard tester websites to checkCTRL+ALT+Q/W/E/R/T/Y/etc. work fine.CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+L works fine too.I noticed this strange behavior because I use IntelliJ software that has this shortcut for reformatting code.Whenever I press CTRL+ALT+L, I get a small "wait" icon ⏳ see Screen Capture here: https://ibb.co/gyrr3Qm - Sorry I tried to put a screenshot directly here but it wouldn't load the image....What I did : - Followed

    ctrl alt del to logon

    Hi Diane,

    Conflicts with the user account settings is one of the possible reasons why the secure sign-in option is enabled on your computer even if the box in the settings is not checked. I would suggest that you enable and disable the
    Require users to press Ctrl+Alt+Delete. You can follow the steps below:

    • Press the Windows key + R.
    • Type control userpasswords2 or netplwiz and press the Enter key.
    • Click the Advanced tab.
    • Under Secure sign-in, check the Require users to press Ctrl + Alt + Delete checkbox.
    • Click Apply.
    • Restart your computer.
    • Open the same settings again and uncheck the Require users to press Ctrl + Alt + Delete checkbox and follow the
      steps 5 and 6.

    Should you need further assistance, don't hesitate to get back to us.
