Ctrl+Alt+Del Secure Login Windows 7

Add an extra layer of security on your Windows 7 login to make sure your not entering your precious password for a malicious program.

Here’s a youtube screencast. Text and picture directions can be found below.

Open the start menu and type netplwiz – hit enter

On the User Accounts window that pops up, select the Advanced tab. Next you want to check off “Requires users to press Ctrl+Alt+Delete” under Secure logon. Hit apply then okay.

You are now one more step closer to being protected! Be careful out there!
