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.

Re: Windows 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.
 
Re: Windows Task Manager

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

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.
