    Why do i have to mash Ctrl+Alt+Delete to pull up Task Manager??


    Been confused about this ever since I built my new Windows 10 computer. As far as I cant tell, it takes a random amount of presses, generally ranging from 3-15 attempts. I think it has activated in one press but only once or twice; not sure on that. Wtf is going on lol I cant find this with a Google search.

    Ctrl Alt Del, Vista

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

    Disable Task Manager on lock screen when I press Ctrl+Alt+Delete

    Hi,

    I'm currently using the Windows 10 Pro 1803, and I have some question about disabling task manager on lock screen when I press Ctrl+Alt+Delete.

    I tried to edit Local Group Policy(Remove Task Manager) to disable it, but the result is blocking all way to access Task Manager. that was out of my intention.

    The thing that I want is:

    1. The task manager can be used.

    2. But the task manager doesn't allow to access by using Ctrl+Alt+Delete.

    Is there any way to block the task manager button on lock screen when I press Ctrl + Alt + Delete?

    Thanks.

    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 Why do i have to mash Ctrl+Alt+Delete to pull up Task Manager?? ;)

    Go ahead, try it in Windows XP too.
