KeyboardHookMode not working?
Hi everyone,
New custimer here and just trying to get the KeyboardHookMode bit to work...
Please correct me if I'm wrong but should this being set to a value of 1, pass the CRTL-ALT-DEL keyboard action through to a terminal server, andshouldn't have an effect on the local PC/thin client? We're using Windows 2003 R2 TS
I'm finding it still brings up the local CTRL-ATL-DEL screen on the local PCs, which are Windows 7 Pro x86
Any ideas?

Guys,

Cheers!

Hi Caleb,
You are correct in what you say, setting the KeyboardHookMode value to 1 does direct the key combinations to the remote VDI or TS session. This works for combinations such as ALT & Tab but not CTRL-ALT-DEL. The CTRL-ALT-DEL key combination is always intercepted by the client computer, when in a remote session using CTRL-ALT-END will provide the same functionality
Hi Caleb,
KeyboardHookMode aside, on the (Windows) client if you set HKLM\Software\MS\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\WinLogon\AutoAdminLogon from the default value of 0 to 2 it will disable the local and will then be directed to the remote session.

Hi Caleb,
1 = Always send to server
2 = In full screen only.
Are you connecting full screen? Have you tried 2 as the value? I have seen behavior before and i believe it was a local policy on a client device. However I never found out what the policy was, as the client was rebuilt which resulted in it starting to work.
