Red face Ctrl-Alt-Del on tablet

I'm currently using my Shift as a tablet along with the finger print reader to populate my password at logon.

Our domain policy insists that Ctrl-Alt-Del is pressed to allow password entry. Although the main logon screen says use the "Windows Security button" (in substitute to pressing Ctrl-Alt-Del) I cannot find out where this mysterious button is.

Any ideas anyone? - HTC Support 2nd line support haven't!

Default Work around \ Solution

I received a call from HTC 2nd line support on this.

There is no complete solution to this as there is NO Windows Security button. If you domain policy states that CTRL+ALT+DEL is requied before logon then you'll have to use a keyboard.

This aside, there may be a chance that your domain policy does not require this one way or another. If the policy is NOT set then you need only go to the Local Security Policies (in Administrative Tools) and disable the policy that requires you to use CTRL+ALT+DEL. Fortunately this works for me.

As for the guy who had a solution but won't share it - this forum works on people sharing information, if you're not prepared to do that then I suggest you lurk elsewhere.

I don't know if you looked at the keyboard, but you can find all the keys there.
I also have my Shift in a domain and I'm also required to press ctrl + alt + delete
This is absolutely no problem. Off course you have to use the keyboard en no there is no windows security button (As far as I know)

I replied because of the ctrl + alt + del keys.. I don't know anything about the Windows Security button.
Sorry for the misunderstanding.
