Ctrl-Alt-Backspace not working on Windows 7 in 1.26

September 21, 2012 10:44:44 AM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

I have Multiplicity with one primary machine and one secondary machine.  I recently replace my Windows XP secondary machine with a new Windows 7 secondary machine.  The new Windows 7 secondary machine does not respond to Ctrl-Alt-Backspace to allow login.  I haven't found any way to login on the second machine using Multiplicity, I keep a second keyboard around just for that for now.

My primary machine is also Windows 7.  This worked fine under the Windows XP machine as secondary.

Is there something special I need to configure in Multiplicity?  I know I can turn off the requirement to hit ctrl-alt-del to login, but I'd prefer not to do that.

Thanks,

Sam

Do you have UAC enabled?

UAC is disabled.  CTRL-ALT-Backspace still does not work on secondary even with UAC disabled (I've always had it disabled).

 

Thanks,

Sam

UAC must be enabled for simulated ctrl-alt-del simulation to work in Multiplicity 1.x due to an OS limitation.  This is not the case with 2.x as 2.x works around this limitation.
