This case is very simple: a Windows keyboard is not equal with a Mac keyboard. And especially if you don’t properly install Windows with the Bootcamp utility, along with adequate drivers or support files – all these things can cost you a bad mood and shiny day spent in the office.
Mac Keyboard Shortcut Delete File
On most remote control software, you select 'Ctrl-Alt-Del' from the menu to send the command to the remote PC. The option key on the mac keyboard is also labeled alt and there is usually a delete key, too on larger / external keyboards.
- Select Virtual Machine Send Ctrl-Alt-Del. If you are using an external PC keyboard, press Ctrl+Alt+Del. On a full-sized Mac keyboard, press Fwd Del+Ctrl+Option. The Forward Delete key is below the Help key. On a Mac laptop keyboard, press Fn+Ctrl+Option+Delete.
- Ctrl Alt Delete on Mac.
- On a Windows PC the CTRL-ALT-END key combination can be used to send the CTRL-ALT-DEL sequence to the remote session. As you rightly point out this is not possible on a MAC keyboard. For a MAC the key sequence to use is actually CTRL-ALT-DEL.
Yet another pain for Windows System Administrators. Naturally, if you have a user with a Macbook using it on their workplace, I assume you would want to join their “Windows partition” to your domain for obvious reasons: Windows integrated authentication to network resources, access to network printers, NTFS shares, authentication to various Internet proxies, security issues and many different services – you name it. Here also comes the problem with hitting control+alt+delete combination, because user is required to use this key combination in order to log into the domain. One minor problem is that the DELETE button on your Macbook might not work as well. Here is one forum discussion which proves that.
If you are in this situation, make sure you plug a USB keyboard and mouse into the Macbook while logged in Windows partition, so the system could be able to install internal drivers – this step is not required but it can make you feel more comfortable doing the next steps.
Ok, there is one small program named SharpKeys that saved my life. As per the author:
“SharpKeys is a utility that manages a Registry key that allows Windows to remap one key to any other key. Included in the application is a list of common keyboard keys and a Type Key feature to automatically recognize most keyboard keys.”
Idea is simple. Remapping some of the keys on your Macbook keyboard will make your ctrl+alt+delete combination work out. Linux 3d software.
In my case the Control key was working, but the Alt and Delete keys didn’t work, even using the Fn key. I had to sacrifice two Mac keys to replace them with Alt and Delete. The Command key was acting as Windows key, so I made the left Windows key the new left Alt key. And of course, I sacrificed the Delete key which was acting as Backspace. I just swapped its function from Backspace to Delete.

After you install SharpKeys, launch the program and click Add. Then click “Type Key” under the left column “Map this key” – and now press the left Command key. Next, click “Type Key” under the right column “To This Key” – now scroll down and find the entry “Special: Left Alt (00_38)”. Click OK, then Write to Registry button. Repeat this process for the Delete key by finding entry “Special: Backspace (00_0E)” in the left column and replacing it with “Special: Delete (E0_53)” in the right. Reboot for the changes to apply.

You may choose and remap only those keys that are most suitable for you, you shouldn’t stick to this arrangement. Repeat this process for all keys that need to be remapped and then do a restart.
