Windows Task Manager Shortcut!

I do a lot of work remotely, and whilst ctrl+alt+end is a lifesaver when using terminal services / remote desktop, there’s no easy way to send ctrl+alt+del to open Task Manager in the “no-preinstall” remote assistance tool that I use (well, there is a way but it takes longer at the client side, and longer to connect to the desktop so it’s only really useful when I know I need to login as a different user on a remote machine)

Well, today I found the answer, and surprisingly I must have seen it a million times….

Right-click an empty space on the taskbar, or the system clock and Task Manager is available from the pop-up menu!

    You will be supprized: Try Ctrl+Shift+Esc. Does the same staff! no need to use mouse (it is evil))
