    How do I reset to factory settings from ctrl+alt+del menu


    My pc keeps freezing every time I log on. I remember there is a way to reset to factory settings from the cntl alt del menu (as I'm not able to open any programs or task manager). What do I need to press to get up the reset menu from ctrl alt del menu?

    :)

    CTRL + ALT + DEL menu not rendered at the top


    Okay first of all.

    It is DEFINITELY not a RAM problem. I have 16GB. The operating system is running in the background and is responding when I press CTRL + ALT + DEL, cause you can see the circle next to the cursor. The cursor responds as well..

    Second, some people suggested me to use CTRL + SHIFT + ESC, I have not tried, but I will. Also this is not my problem. My problem is that the CTRL ALT DEL menu among which you can chose to turn on the task manager gives me black screen. Alt tabbing does not work with ANY software that is frozen in fullscreen, but that is normal.

    On windows 7 this was not an issue. When nothing worked, ctrl alt del always worked.

    On windows 10, CTRL alt deleting does not work, with some full screen applications.

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

    Ctrl Alt Del, Vista

    On a domain you won't get Task Manager when you hit Ctrl+Alt+Del. You get a crazy screen with a bunch of options.

    Ctrl+Shift+Esc has always brought up just the Task Manager, even back to Windows XP days. You just weren't aware of it. *Wink How do I reset to factory settings from ctrl+alt+del menu ;)

    Go ahead, try it in Windows XP too.
