Disable CTRL-Alt-Delete

Guest

Hi,
I need to disable the window that pops up when CTRL-ALT-DEL is pressed.
The window is titled "Windows security" and has 6 buttons , including the
task-manager button.

I already removed taskmanager from the image, but still get this popup.
I also tried "DisableTaskMgr" registry setting (from policies)
I donot want to change Gina.dll, this takes too much time for our customer.

What program pops up this window ?
Can I just delete this program ?

I donot have a shell running (app is set as shell), an donot have a taskmgr
in the image. Plz help me to stop this popup. Ofcourse I already googled, but
found no answer. In many places there is suggested that "DisableTaskMgr" will
block CTRL-ALT-DEL, but this is not true, The popup remains....

Greetings,
Rob.

The only way I've found is to set "AutoAdminLogon"="2" in
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

Of course, this only works if you want to automatically logon to your
image and you have set the other requisite entries. And from my
testing, it doesn't work in Vista, so if there ever is a Vista Embedded
we may be out of luck.

Dear Rob,

Some information are listed for you reference.
- Enable "Friendly Logon"
Use "Friendly Logon", press "ctrl+alt+del" -> Task Manager -> Choose
This One
Unselect "Friendly Logon", press "ctrl+alt+del" -> Windows Security


- Delete "taskmgr.exe" in Windows\System32
If you want to delete any window triggered by "CTRL+ALT+DEL"
