[@_shevakadu5212]

really nice that you included so much systems! _you got a subscriber!_

[@LilyBloomVee]

Not all Android systems forcibly reboot on CTRL ALT DEL. Starting with Android 9, different manufacturers put different stuff behind this key combination, with Huawei and their EMUI it brings up some form of a task manager (all though not on all of their phones running EMUI 9, phones older than the P20 series still run on Android 8 despite EMUI 9 and do still do a force reboot). Samsung does the same thing since Android 10 I think. Anyways, like this video, taught me a few things on the fly as well such as Haiku and it's Team Monitor and other foreign OSes I didn't knew existed!

[@zielony1212]

What you did with linux is just how different desktop envs react to ctrl alt del.

[@ninethetwotailedfox]

Yeaa

[@NoaeDoesStuff]

yeah

[@ThatLinuxDude]

7:35 It's important to note here that CTRL+ALT+DEL doing something here is because: - (not the case in the video) The Custom WinPE has Session Management added in (which'd result in Windows Security appearing when pressing CTRL+ALT+DEL instead once you log into the Custom PE's "Administrator") - (the case in the video) The Custom WinPE used has a means of associating a CTRL+ALT+ESC hotkey, which it uses to associate it with Task Manager, as seen, since there's no Session Management in that custom WinPE to otherwise associate CTRL+ALT+DEL to Windows Security with. *Official Windows Preinstallation Environments do not have anything to automatically associate the hotkey, etc., and thus do not associate CTRL+ALT+DEL in any way (CTRL+ALT+DEL instead does nothing).* An easy way of seeing this is Recovery Environment in Vista and later.

0:48 Contrary to popular belief, this is *NOT* a BSOD. In Windows 3.x, the messages that show up when you press Ctrl+Alt+Del are part of what's officially called the Ctrl+Alt+Del dialog. Keep in mind that, for severe system errors, Windows 3.x (like previous versions of Windows) will immediately exit to the MS-DOS prompt.

For Windows NT 3.1 through Windows 2000, as you press Ctrl+Alt+Del, it will do the same thing as if you press this combination on newer operating systems, but when you log out, it requires you to press Ctrl+Alt+Del to log on.

[@yeppiidev]

Damn respect to this guy for installing all of them (natively and in VMs)

[@giaptheson]

For newer operating systems, which means Windows Vista or later, as you press Ctrl+Alt+Del, it will bring up the Windows Logon options, and if optional, require the user to log on to Windows using this combination.

with linux in general it brings up shutdown and/or logout options when in most desktop environments (GUI), and it reboots if you are in a virtual console (CLI)

[@pawer_themaw]

The reason why Windows 3.1 throws up a blue screen after Ctrl+Alt+Del is because this combo *actually kills the process you are on* which is, in this case, the Program Manager.

[@pawer_themaw]

(as you can see with the DOS Prompt at 1:11, it IS used to kill apps that stop responding.)

What happens if you press CTRL+ALT+DELETE in the login screen?

[@World_of_OSes]

I did sort of cover that in this video. In Windows 9x it brings up the 'Close Program' dialogue. In NT versions prior to Windows XP it is required to logon. In Windows XP, pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del twice on the Welcome screen temporarily brings up the classic logon prompt, if the Welcome screen is disabled, it does nothing unless the Ctrl+Alt+Del requirement is enabled in which case it is required to logon. In Windows Vista and later it does nothing unless the Ctrl+Alt+Del requirement is enabled in which case it is required to logon.

[@JustAPersonWhoComments]

Control-Alt-Delete (often abbreviated to Ctrl+Alt+Del, also known as the "three-finger salute" or "Security Keys") is a computer keyboard command on IBM PC compatible computers, invoked by pressing the Delete key while holding the Control and Alt keys: Ctrl+Alt+Delete. The function of the key combination differs depending on the context but it generally interrupts or facilitates interrupting a function. For instance, in pre-boot environment (before an operating system starts) or in DOS, Windows 3.0 and earlier versions of Windows or OS/2, the key combination reboots the computer. Starting with Windows 95, the key combination invokes a task manager or security related component that facilitates ending a Windows session or killing a frozen application.
