Answer 2

Hi,

We can enable/disable the option by modify the registry, here is some code snippet, hope it helps:

            // CAD means "Ctrl + Alt + Del"

            string valueName = "DisableCAD";

            string subKeyPath = @"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon";

            using (RegistryKey key = Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey(subKeyPath, true))

            {

                // set the value of "DisableCAD" to 0 to enable CAD when user login.

                key.SetValue(valueName, 0x00000000, RegistryValueKind.DWord);

 

                // or set the value of "DisableCAD" to 1 to disable CAD when user login.

                // key.SetValue(valueName, 0x00000001, RegistryValueKind.DWord);

            }

 

Thanks,

Eric
