When using WINSelect to block hot-keys the workstation does not prompt for a password when resuming from standby.

When WINSelect is configured to block hotkeys, specifically the WINDOWS-L key combination, the ability of the workstation to enter into a locked state will be disabled. This will show with the following behaviors;

  • Workstations will not prompt for passwords when returning from the screen saver.
  • Workstations will not show the ability to lock the computer in the Windows Security dialog.
