How to send ctrl+alt+del using Remote Desktop?

Solution 1:

ctrl+alt+end is the prescribed way to do this.

Coding Horror has some other shortcuts.

Solution 2:

One option is to use the on-screen keyboard from within the first RDP session.

Solution 3:

In newer versions of Windows there is a link to Windows Security in the start menu that will get you to the same place.

Never tried ctrl+alt+end - very sweet. I'll have to stick that in the storage space with ctrl+alt+ins for VMware. I personally avoid using the mouse as much as possible - weird for a Windows admin, right?

Solution 4:

In the Remote Desktop help, it says you must use ctrl+alt+end , so that is the correct, official way.

Solution 5:

You can use the following key combinations in remote desktop connection.

  • CTRL + ALT + DEL → CTRL + ALT + END

  • CTRL + PAGE UP → ALT + PAGE UP

  • CTRL + PAGE DOWN → ALT + PAGE DOWN

  • ALT + TAB → ALT + INSERT
