Windows 10: how to get the <Alt + Function> turned off for my other User accounts

Split from this thread. I have been running Vista for 10 years and have loved it, but too many sites and programs have stopped accepting it. My PC totally died last month and so I am learning Windows 11 and trying to get back up. I have put my Vista drive into an external case and am starting to get my old files back in order. My next problem is how to get the <Alt + Function> turned off for my other User accounts. One hit function keys works fine in the Admin account, but not in my user accounts. Then I plan to get all the programs I can to write to my 4Tb D: drive instead of

:)

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.
