    How to get out of screen saver without using ctrl alt del


    My computer has for some time not allowed me to resume after going to the screen saver.
    If you press any key the screen goes blank. The only way to get back to using the computer is ctrl alt delete and the press cancel. Any help would be appreciated.

    :)

    screen saver

    When I use the photo gallery for my screen saver, I can't get out of it except by hitting ctrl-alt-del. Is there a setting that I missed?

    Hi John,

    This issue might have caused by the storage where you get the photos that you are using as your screensaver. You can refer to
    AllenAlb's answer on this thread:
    Wake up from screen saver is only by ctrl-alt-del    . It was marked as answer and helped 13 people.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Try to disable the screen saver, then re-enable it again. Wait for the screen saver. Hopefully this could be a very simple solution like so.
