Ctrl-Alt-Del in Win 7

I used to be able to hit Ctrl-Alt-Del in XP to end a program. How can I do
that in Win 7? Thanks for your time. Otto

Re: Ctrl-Alt-Del in Win 7

Right click the task bar and select task manager. From there you can end any
program, process or service

I would be careful taking advice from bubuntuites, they may have ulterior
motives and want to bring harm to you

You can use C-A-D and click on Task Manager, then kill the program there.
Or, right-click on the Taskbar, and select Start Task Manager.

Re: Ctrl-Alt-Del in Win 7

HOLY COW!!!
THANKS FOR THE TIP!

I am serious. I know to you it may feel like you ask someone "what is the
sky color on a clear day" and the eprson is answering "I don't know, green?"
I've missed this tip for several momnths since I switched from XP to Vista &
now to Win7.
I kept stubbronly hitting Alt+Ctrl+Del -->select Task Manager instead of a
single click tip ypou just provided.

Thanks!

Re: Ctrl-Alt-Del in Win 7

Idiot, that does nothing to end a "stubborn" program. The customer knows
about Alt+F4 without your advise.
What he was inquiring about is Alt+Ctrl+Del to invoke Task Manager to
terminate a stubborn process.

Go back ti Ubuntu forums and help there
