| 116131 | 2003-01-23 10:14:00 | was advised to add the following to the autoexe.bat file to allow ctrl-alt-del to give the option of closing the current programme and continuing or shutting down - C:\>delC:\Windows\Temp\*.tmp>nul - it didn't work - anyone tell me how to get it to operate please | jayal (1291) | ||

| 116133 | 2003-01-23 10:48:00 | the info you where given is for deleteing windows temp file(deltree), which isn't really needed as windows dosn't lock it so it can be delete normally. its not a good idea to go playing with dos commands (exspecially in autoexe) if you don't know exactly what you are doing. i deleted half of windows after i did a simple typo argghhhh! |

| 116134 | 2003-01-23 10:51:00 | Which version of Windows are you using? What are you trying to do? C:\>delC:\Windows\Temp\*.tmp>nul - it didn't work - anyone tell me how to get it to operate please The above command in Autoexec.bat without the null will just delete all file in c:\windows\temp that have a .tmp extention. Cntrl - Alt - Del in WinNT, Win2000 and WinXP do different things. The same command in Win95, Win98 and WinME will restart your computer like the reset button if you have one. |

| 116135 | 2003-01-23 20:52:00 | Jayal, if you are running Windows press and hold <Ctrl> then press and hold <Alt> then press then release<Del> Then release the other two. This should bring up a window saying "Close Program" which lists all the open programs. If you repeat the key combination it will restart the computer. Alternatively, if you just want to close the open program use <alt><F4> |
