Windows 10: Not getting the prompt to end the run while pressing Ctrl + Break key

Using Win10 (32bit) for the first time a new Dell Optiplex with Dell keyboard.

When running a BAT sequence in CMD window, hitting Control Break only pauses the run, not to present a dialog query to operator to end the run, as all previous versions of Windows. Is this a Win10 "feature"?! Is there some other was to cancel a batch run?

Why Windows 10 don't goes to login screen after CTRL+ALT+DELETE?

Hi,



Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community. I understand the inconvenience you are facing. I will certainly help you with this.

CTRL+ALT+DELETE will open you log-in screen in Windows 10 too. I suggest you to try pressing
Ctrl+SHIFT+Esc key and check if it opens the Task manager. If issue persist, I suggest you to try below given steps and check if it works.

This issue may occur due to some system file corruption.
I suggest you to run System file checker. System File checker (SFC) scan is done to check if there are any corrupted system files that could be causing this issue. Kindly follow the below given steps:

• Press Windows key + X, select Command prompt (Admin) to bring up elevated Command prompt.
• In Command prompt type sfc/scannow and press enter.
• Restart the computer.

If no corrupted system files were found in the previous state, then I suggest you to try the following steps:

• Open command prompt by pressing Windows key + X and selecting “Command prompt admin”.
• In command prompt, type the following commands and press Enter after each command:

• DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth
• DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth
