The question is, is the machine a part of a domain or just a personal machine? If a personal machine, just start typing the password and you are good to go.

Sticky keys can be turned on in Windows by pressing the left shift key 5 times in a row or through ease of access settings in control panel. Sticky keys allows the user to press each modifier key separately and then the whole sequence is passed to Windows at once.

Subject: [WebAIM] Log into Windows without CTRL+ALT+DELETE

Colleagues,

We have a staff member on campus who cannot use the CTRL+ALT+DELETE combination to log into Windows due to extremely limited dexterity. This person can type one character at a time on a specialty keyboard.

Does anyone know of a way to call the login screen without using the CTRL+ALT+DELETE combo?

Thanks,
Todd
