Left alt key menu -- can we disable it?

Thanks all for many responses!

Try*3's procedure worked. My steps in this subject line were slightly different. For me it appears to be a Mozilla toolbar setting (FF, TB). In the clip below it's the top row. You can see my wallpaper in the background. I would have to press left-alt each time I wanted to see it. Someone said it varies by program, so I'll keep it in mind.




Thanks again.

 

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.
