When I press Alt+F4, the Windows either close the window I am in (which is good) or sign off the Windows if there is no window opened. This last behavior I would like to disable. Does anyone know how to do it?

    Does this answer your question? Is it there any way to prevent alt+f4 shutdown in windows. Of course this also disables the ability to perform a shutdown. You will have to decide if you want the ability to shutdown (which means the shortcut will perform a shutdown) or if you want to prevent the ability to perform a shutdown (which means the shortcut will only close programs).

  • I tried what @BlueBerry suggested in the other question but I can't find the key he mentioned. Maybe that is not for Windows 10.

  • It won't exist by default. You have to create it.
