Windows 7: Remove "Windows Security Button" from logon screen

kb32 · 28 Feb 2011

How can I just have "press ctrl + alt + delete to..." instead of this "Windows Security Button" part added on?

I would politely suggest reading this, and perhaps a mild use of the search function in the future.

I've read that probably a dozen different times.

Right now it says ctrl alt del or Security button. I don't want it to say Security button.

You have a tablet then?

NOTE: If you have a tablet connected your computer with it's drivers installed, then you may see Press CTRL + Alt + Delete or use the Windows Security Button to log on instead.

My apologies. I apparently misread your request. Well, perhaps try the following:

Tap the "Start" button from your Desktop to open the tablet PC setting, and then tap the "Control Panel" option.
2
Tap the "Mobile PC" option, and then tap the "Tablet PC Settings" option. The Tablet PC Settings window will then appear on your screen.
3
Tap the "Buttons" tab and then tap the screen orientation for your button from the "Button Settings For" list.
4
Tap the "Windows Security" option from the "Tablet button" list, and then tap the "Change" option.
5
Select the "Log On" option from the "Press" list in order to define the action you want the button to perform.
6
Tap the "OK" option twice and then close out of the open windows. Press the "Windows Security" button on your tablet PC to open the Windows log-in screen.

The above was swindled from ehow.com.

I lost you. I don't have a control panel inside Tablet PC settings.

Sorry. I copy and pasted from their website. It should say tablet pc settings inside control panel. That's a typo they made and I didn't catch to correct.

So that is going to remove the text "Windows security button". I don't want to see that. I don't even know what one is

WebMattR · 03 Mar 2011

It should. You just need to uncheck the "Windows Security Button" when you get to the last few steps, rather than checking it.
