Of course you have to previously enable remote connections and create a remote user.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you have opened the remote session, the utility for this method can be accessed by following these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Open the Start menu of the remote session and navigate to the &#8220;Accessories&#8221; folder.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click on &#8220;Ease of Access&#8221; and select &#8220;On-Screen Keyboard.&#8221; (You may also like to search for OSK in the menu-bar. This should yield the same result.)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Once the On-Screen Keyboard appears, click the Ctrl, Alt, and Del keys in sequence to send the command to the remote desktop session.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>NB: If you have trouble opening the start menu due to mouse interference, command Alt+Home should open it anyhow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"-method-2-\u2013-ctrlaltend-on-a-hardware-keyboard-\">Method 2 \u2013 Ctrl+Alt+End on a Hardware Keyboard:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Ctrl+Alt+End shortcut is another method. It consists in using the Ctrl+Alt+End key- combination instead. This emulates the \u201cCtrl+Alt+Del\u201d command within a remote desktop session.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Note there is another possibility within this method if you have a part-size keyboard or small laptop (There, End is not on the right-hand 1 key since the number-pad is absent. It is often by the arrows in that case.). It is to use the Fn key in combination with Del. This two-key pair generally still sends the \u201cCtrl+Alt+Del\u201d command to remote Terminal Servers. Follow these steps once you have set- up a remote connection and that the remote session is active:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Ensure your active window is the open remote device session (for example by clicking on the remote desktop screen).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Press Ctrl+Alt+End simultaneously to send the \u201cCtrl+Alt+Del\u201d command to the remote session.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Method 1 \u2013 Ctrl+Alt+End on an On-Screen Keyboard: The on-screen keyboard approach, a popular method, is to use the On-Screen Keyboard of the remote device.
