Windows 10: Seriously? Ctrl+ A no longer selects all?

Horrible start to using Windows 11 when I can't even use a shortcut to select all. After decades of Ctrl+ A, C, & Ving all over windows, it's just gone with no explanation? You begged me incessantly to switch to Windows 11....I damn sure knew giving in was a bad idea, & sure enough, here we are...it's just like Windows 7 to 8 happening all over again. Let's hope this time it isn't "oops, so sorry for ruining your PC with our so-called improvements" from Windows all over again! Beyond frustrating. There simply aren't enough curse words in the English language for this.

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
  • Close the command prompt and restart the PC and check if it works.
