Windows Task Manager

We are running Windows XP. For some reasons, when we press CTRL+ ALT+ Del

at the same time, the Windows Task Manager is displayed. Do you have any

suggestions on how to fix this problem?

 

Thanks.

Why is it a problem? That is the keyboard shortcut to access Windows

Task Manager!

Problem? It's not a problem at all. It's the standard way to get Task

Manager.

What did you think the keyboard combination would do?

Interesting...

 

On my desktop and laptop systems with XP Pro, the three

finger salute brings up a Windows Security pane with 6

options, Task Manager being one of them. That's always

been the case, so maybe that's the way it works with Pro.

Using CTRL+ALT+DEL key combination to open Windows Security opens Task

Manager

CAUSE

This issue occurs if you configured Windows XP to use the Welcome screen.

Re: Windows Task Manager

 

Thanks all very much. I was expecting to have a window with 6 options

(Lock Computer, Change Password, Logoff, Shutdown, etc.) when I press

CTRL+ALT+DEL. My problem was I had the Welcome screen. With your help, my

problem is now fixed.

 

Thanks again for your help.
