[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 706832, member: 32260"] Recently, I noticed a Windows bug related to Secure Attention Sequence (SAS), that requires physically pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del to open the secure desktop with UAC. After one of Windows Updates, the Admin account on the computer of my wife was not accessible. It turned out that Windows wanted to configure something and required to elevate some tool, but SAS alert was invisible to the user. So, I had to reboot to Safe Mode, run Hard_Configurator and disable SAS via <More...> <UAC CTRL_ALT_DEL> option. Microsoft, I love you.:sick:;) [/QUOTE]
