There used to be a win32 call for it, so if you want it you'll need to go back to C/C++ and do JNI, provided it is still in the API.

How can I disable ctrl+alt+del and other keys

I need help on how to disable some keyboard key combinations (ctrl+alt+del)in particular. Disabling other keyboard keys is equally welcomed.
Also how can I disable Windows 2000/XP's Task Manager from exposing my running program to be terminated.
Thanks

from exposing my running program to be terminated.This can be done by limiting the permissions of the Windows user that you would like to prevent from doing this. The user manager lets you do this.

[Boot Camp] Can't send a Ctrl-Alt-Del during first boot!

Hello,
I just Installed WIndows Server on iMac using Boot Camp. It requires that once the password is set (per Group Policy on Windows Server PCs), I'll have to login by pressing Ctrl-Alt-Del (this is my first time login) and i'm unable to figure out how can it be done! I know that there is a discussion running everywhere about the PC equivalent "Del" key on iMac. I have tried the following -
1. Ctrl-Alt-Del (Del is actually Backspace) : Doesn't work
2. Ctrl-Alt-Del (Fn Key pressed down - that makes it delete) : Doesn't work
I read somewhere that mapping a key differently should work. But i'm unsure of the process and i also understand that i'll have to do it from the OS. In my case, i'm not logged in yet! Is there someone who can help me in this regard?
Maybe, I can use backspace and delete functions on iMac but i'm looking for a equivalent "Delete" KEY and not Delete FUNCTION to Login. If you can point me to a existing thread or post solutions/thoughts, i'll be thankful.

The retail OS X 10.6.3 DVDs unlike your OEM DVD does have a complete set of drivers for $29 w/o having to deal with questionable bitorrent.
Microsoft EOL'd XP and Vista SP1.
Your Mac has Intel Thunderbolt and you don't see Apple doing backward compatibility. You can't run 10.5 on new Mac. So yes it comes with those limitations, but XP is also 20x more vulnerable, IE9 is more secure and XP has not kept up with the latest hardware, besides which I don't see a place or need for a 32-bit OS, any platform today.

Revolve 810 G1 Unlock Computer when in Tablet Mode. Press CTRL-ALT-DEL or Windows Security Button

1. I have an Revolve 810 G1
Running Windows 7 Pro (64 Bit).
When I change the screen to Tablet Mode
(Folding tablet over keyboard and using as tablet).
I lock my computer.
2. What to know how to unlock without having to Open back up and use the CTL-Alt-DEL keys.
When Locked screen shows: Press CTRL-ALT-DEL or use the Windows Security Button to unlock this computer.
I would like to use the Windows Button on the bottom of the screen
(One Used in Windows 8 to change between Desktop and Metro) to Unlock screen And bring up on screen keyboard to put in my password.
This is probably how it should work, but it does not work.
Even bringing up the onscreen keyboard via the blue power button On the screen to Ease Of Access does not work.
The CLT-ALT-DEL on the on screen keyboard will not unlock the screen.
P.S.
Where is that Windows Security Button when you need it?
Thanks,
Rog

If you are using Windows 7 (not Windows 8), you should be able to touch the Ease of Access button at the lower left of the screen, then select Type without the keyboard (On-screen keyboard). When the on-screen keyboard pops-up, press CTRL, then ALT, then DEL. You should get a password prompt; the on-screen keyboard will stay visible unless and until you close it.

Error message NTLDR is missing - press ctrl alt del to restart

Hello,
I am extremely embarrassed to admit the following and ridiculously angry with myself for doing something as totally stupid as I did, but it is done now..sigh..
I have the NTLDR is missing - press ctrl alt del to restart nightmare error.
This is how it happened. I need(ed) to reformat my hard drive, but first I was going to back up everything. I back up every so often, though, now I know not near as often as I should!. (last back up was 5/21/07 sigh.) Well, not thinking, instead of backing up, I put the restore cd in the drive and the screen came up saying: "loading ramdisk" then I got to the next screen which basically was asking if I wanted to restore out of the box or not. I chose the first step in the wizard which said out of the box. Then I clicked NEXT and realized I had not backed up my files!! So I cancelled out of the restore cd wizard.
When I restarted the computer, I got the aforementioned nightmare error.
I have been researching for many, many hours on how to fix it or at least be able to boot into windows. I've done the following:
1. created a floppy boot disk with ntldr, ntdetect.com, and boot.ini on it to restore I have all but I don't know if the dates mean anything on the ones downloaded from another laptop
this did not work I still came up with the same error or some other errors one pointing to hal\something. i am not sure if it is my boot.ini that is causing the problem or what. Oh, by the way, I went into the BIOS and made sure that the computer booted up to FDD first when trying the floppy option.

Hi
Its a very stupid and tricky situation.
The simplest solution would be the HDD formatting and new reinstallation of the OS.
But it seems you want to rescue all the files available on the HDD.
Hopefully its not too late
Hmmm. I think youve got only one chance!!! You have to remove the internal HDD from the notebook and try to connect it to second PC via external USB controller!!!!
Such part is not expensive and can be ordered from every notebook dealer.
You should be able to get the access to the HDD removed from notebook....
After this procedure the HDD should be formatted in NTFS and all partition should be erased!
Then you should try to start the installation procedure from the Windows or Recovery CD.
By the way; I have investigate a little bit in the Microsoft database and found these both documents:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/318728
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314057
Maybe some hints described in these documents could be useful.
Good luck

HT5628 ctrl-alt-del logon & Bitlocker on Win8 with new MacBookAir doesn't work

Am running the latest BootCamp and have a brand new MacBookAir and Win8.
On the Windows Logon Screen I can't use ctrl+alt-del even with fn key or on-screen keyboard. The only way I can logon is by plugging in my keyboard - does any one have a tip please?
I'd like to use Bitlocker HD encryption in Win8, but don't know how to do this, e.g. with storing the Key on a USB thumbdrive if that's the only option - any help is apppreciated.
Thanks!!
Chris

Tthere seems to be a non TPM compatible BIOS on MacBookAir: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee449438%28WS.10%29.aspx#BKMK_NoTPM
And the a plugged in USB drive during the BitLocker Requirement Check yields no change.

Disable Window keys ALT+TAB, CTRL+ALT+DEL

Hello i am developing an application in which i need to catch the ALT+TAB and CTRLALT+DEL key events and handle it in my own way.
The default action of showing the next window or the task manager should not take place.
In the event handler i have given
eventName.consume();
also.But the default handling is also done.
How do i stop the default action from being done?

Windows will not allow any application to catch the CTRL+ALT+DEL keystroke. In Windows NT-kernel OSes, this keystroke brings up a menu which, among other things, allows the user to change his or her password. If an application could intercept CTRL+ALT+DEL, it could present itself in such a way as to look just like that dialog. Then, if a user typed his or her password into that dialog, the program could log or transmit that password plaintext, severely violating security.
All sorts of exploits like that would be possible. This is why you can't block system keystrokes.
Is there any particular reason you need to override this behavior? Perhaps we can help you find another solution to whatever problem made you decide you wanted to catch those keystrokes in the first place.

Startup error after press F11 to recovery vista (a disk read error occurred press Ctrl Alt Del

I have pavilion dv5 - 1116em , and it was hanging , i restarted the windows to make a system recovery to factory settings and press F11 after that i got error message (a disk read error occurred press Ctrl Alt Del to restart ) , i tried to restart it again or boot any bootable cds , but nothing i can change so please tell me how i can fix this , so i can install a new windows or make it startup with the existing windows.

before all that happened with 2 days the windows was hanging alot , i made defragment to the hard drive after it finish every thing was working perfectly and not hanging anymore except the E: Recovery partition didn't had the usage label under it , and when i clicked on it , was saying that i need to format it to open it ,but the C: and The D: Partitions was working very well ,there is any other way to fix this partition or to make the computer boot?

HP Elitebook 8560w Won't Boot UP -- Disk Read Error Press CTRL ALT DEL to restart

Hello. I have an Elitebook 8560w, that won't boot up. The screen says "Disk Read Error Press CTRL ALT DEL to restart". The screen isn't all black...there are some random colored square pixels with a random flashing !, but it's mostly black.
I've run the diagnostics and the F4 Hard Disk Test has passed everytime I've run it. I can hear the hard drive running, so mechanically it's okay (not sure on the logic side).
The F3 Run-in Test fails under the Memory Test, it reads "Run-in test failed - Failed Memory Address 0x76B99000 Pattern expected - 0XFEFFFF Pattern Read - OxFFFFFF
I tried a new 4GB DDDR RAM (removed the old one), and it hasn't helped. I should add before I changed RAM, it failed memory test and said "Disk Not Found".
That made me think it was the hard drive, but the hard drive test has always passed.
Any help would be appreciated. I'm lost. I have a new drive and ram coming from HP, but hoping I can salvage info on HDD.
Also...the computer was set up with Windows 7 as new, but my company reimages everyone's computer and installs XP. So I'm not sure running the HP CD (assuming I can find it) would even help.

Disk read failure and disk not found are classic signs of a hard drive failure. The memory failed the test, so it looks like this had two issues at once.
The good news is that the right parts are on their way. If you want to save your data, do not use the recovery disks for the system. They will wipe the hard drive if it is still functional for them.
With regards to retrieving your data, have you talked to the IT team yet? Most IT departments have a process for data retrieval on company equipment.
If they do not have a process setup to do that, then you could try getting a notebook hard drive external enclosure. They usually run fairly cheap for a basic enclosure and that is enough to connect the hard drive externally to a different computer using a USB cable to copy data from it. This would work provided they do not encrypt the hard drive. If they do encrypt it, contact the IT team for their process as encryption limits the methods that are available.

Bootcamp perfect - now need ctrl-alt-del key map

Hi Guys,
Installed bootcamp, XP SP2 on MBP works perfectly, joined local Windows domain - no worries - now on boot of course it wants the infamous cntl-alt-del key combo - I've tried just about everything but no luck.
In the end plugged in external PC usb keyboard, got in and turned off the requirement to enter ctrl-alt-del in windows as a work around.
Any ideas on how to map the MBP keyboard to work? Thanks all.

Ctrl Alt Del on Windows XP:
After installing,
1) go to Start>Run
2) Enter "remapkey" (witout quotes)
A nice GUI utility pops up to let you remap keys on your keyboard. You can use it to remap the delete key. I suggest using the Right Command key.
After saving, reboot and you'll be able to use Ctrl-Alt-(Right Command) to do a Ctrl-Alt-Delete and logon to Windows domains and other useful things.

Turn off Logon Help popup window at Ctrl+Alt+Del prompt

At Ctrl+Alt+Del prompt I get the window popup telling me to press Ctrl+Alt+Del to login....how do I turn this off on the thinkpad??? Windows XP.
If you click on the little blue "Help" link at the bottom of the Ctrl+Alt+Del logon prompt screen, you will see the Logon Help. But it pops up by itsself on the thinkpad....even restored image from partition and the popup still persists. How do I turn it off

Are you on a domain? If so it is probably a requirement to be on the domain. The factory preload does not require a ctrl-alt-del to logon.

Tried installing Windows Vista, cancelled install and now it won't boot from the OEM Vista DVD, all i get is BOOTMGR is missing error... Ctrl Alt Del to restart and when i turn the computer on i get a blank screen and pressing C is not working to boot....

Topic says it all...
My friend started a installation of Windows Vista, but pulled out after deleting all partitions...
So now i power it on, get a blank screen (seems a bit gray because of backlighting, should show the apple logo right?)...
Then after like 15-20sec it will throw out a:
BOOTMGR is missing
Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart
I have a OEM Windows Vista DVD in the drive, and i know... Windows 7 is better... but i'm not that fond of stealing software from Microsoft and i have 10 licenses for Vista...
I have tried pressing C while booting up but it doesn't work...
Does anyone here have a magic soloution for me, and no i will not install MacOS on it !!!

Deleting Boot Camp partitions the conventional way will not work . You must use the Boot Camp Assistant to remove a Boot Camp partition. Here is a link to the guide.
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/Boot_Camp_Install-Setup_10.6.pdf
The way to restart is to hold down the option/alt key during startup* and then selecting the Mac OS. If you have a valid Boot Camp install of Windows it would show up during this type of start up.
* hold down immediately after pressing the power button and until the OS choice screen appears.
To summarize.
1 Use the above method to boot into Mac OS.
2 Download the instructions and read them.
3 Use Boot Camp Assistant to remove the partition.
4 Pick your friends more carefully.
