Unlock screen without ctrl+alt+del

Question

Monday, January 14, 2019 7:37 PM

Hi all,

i have bought notebook without "DEL" key (it's by design).

And our corporate group policies don't allowed to unlock blocked screen without ctrl+alt+del combination.

Is it possible to unlock screen with workarounds?

I have a very small Toshiba which also has no Del key but it does have Backspace. If you press the Function key and Backspace it acts as a Del key. That also works for Ctrl Alt Del.

Have you tried that?

Win Key - U (for Ease of Access) > click on "Type without the keyboard (on-screen keyboard)" > use CTRL and ALT on physical keyboard then use mouse to click on on-screen DEL

Hi john.b_,

thank you for reply. 

I have tried and it helps, but on-screen keyboard appears very often with any action. 

It disturbs.
