Ctrl+Alt+Del

[Christian Hofner]

How can i disable the Ctrl+Alt+Del (Task-Manager) Key in Windows NT 4.0 ?

They won't let you - after all, it's intended that Task Manager can come up no matter what we do.
(And I wouldn't like anyone who takes away this)

You can do it. But I would never tell anyone how.

Hi,

I had problem of CTRL+ALT+DEL last few days. I searched discussion board for that but didnot found proper solution. I only found that use Gina Dll inplace of microsoft's MSGina.dll. That is not proper solution. Now i solved my purpose to disable CTRL+ALT+DEL in win2000. I don't know about WinNT but it will work for it also. So i want to contribute this part to all user.

Steps are as follows :

1. Open Microsoft SDK Examples. In That Example, Open GinaStub example.
2. Find function
int
WINAPI
WlxLoggedOnSAS(
PVOID pWlxContext,
DWORD dwSasType,
PVOID pReserved
)

3. In this function remove all code written and only return like this
return WLX_SAS_ACTION_NONE;
4. So it looks like this...
int WINAPI WlxLoggedOnSAS(
PVOID pWlxContext,
DWORD dwSasType,
PVOID pReserved
)
{
return WLX_SAS_ACTION_NONE; // Return code for doing nothing ... return to desktop
}
5. Now Make dll.
6. Goto Registry by regedit.
7. goto
\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
(WindowsNT is also there. So dont confused it is | Windows(Space)NT | okay)
8. Make New string value and give data like this
name : GinaDLL
Type : REG_SZ
Data : C:\WinNT\System32\mygina.dll (path of your gina dll(suppose mygina.dll))
9. Reboot computer And your control+alter+delete not worked at all.
