Hi

I'm curently working on my final project for my IT course in school
What I need to do is create some sort of 'puzzle' for my classmates t
solve. So what I was thinking of was adding a line, clickable or not, t
the menu that pops up when you press Ctrl Alt Del. In that line I woul
like to have a text giving a hint or if it could be clickable opening
file to continue the puzzle

So I was wondering, is it possible to add a line of text (clickable o
not) to the Ctrl Alt Del menu

If anyone could help me out on this by either saying that it can't b
done or giving me a hint to what I need to do to accomplish this or jus
saying how I can do this I'd gladly appreciate it

~Too

Instead of messing with the Ctrl Alt Del menu, you could write a program or
script and then create a shortcut to it and then assign a shortcut key to
that. You can ask in a programming group for details of how to do that.

Hmm... I did think about doing that but I thought it was a too mess
method to accomplish this. Besides the windows built-in menu looks nic
enough

As for the programming, I can do that myself, I know how to, but bein
able to set a hotkey for the combination of Ctrl+Alt+Del isn't allowe
by windows, so I'll have to mess with _IsPresses() functions

Anyways, thanks for your help with clearing me up on this =

Regards

Too
