ctrl-alt-end

As an avid Winxp remote desktop user I thought I knew all the tricks. Need to restart? I thought the best way was cmd…”shutdown -r”. Then yesterday I needed to access the change password dialog from the ctrl-alt-delete menu. Well of course you can’t ctrl-alt-delete in a remote sessions.


CTRL-ALT-END brings up the ctrl-alt-delete menu in a remote desktop session.

  1. How cool is that. I had no idea! Many thanks for that tip — I’ve spent about twenty minutes trying to safely change my admin password on a remote server. You learn something new every day.
