    Help needed: my alt and ctrl button suddenly changed and now it instantly takes me to the...


    I really need help, since I cant use Alt tab or copy and paste anymore now. Suddenly my alt key and my ctrl key changed to instantly take me to the ctr al delete screen. Ive tried googling the issue but havent found any related issues. I use a Logitech G710+ keyboard and Im really not sure where to change any of these settings (or whether its a hardware issue). It happened very suddenly since yesterday it was working but after updating to the latest W10 version its a mess. It happens both when just on my desktop or browsing the web or when Im playing a game.

    Can anybody give me some insight in how I could possibly change this? If I need to provide any additional information please let me know, any help is appreciated!

    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.

    Ctrl Alt Del, Vista

    The whole Ctrl+Shift+Esc should be used to get that crazy screen with those options and Ctrl+Alt+Del should bring up TM.
