    Not all laptops have the ability to remap keys in the BIOS/UEFI

      If it’s your own computer there’s always autohotkey. Or Linux. Preferably Linux.

        It’s not a key, it sends left win + left shift + f23. Can’t be disentangled from those other modifier keys, true remapping is impossible unless you can get to the keyboard firmware. Even under linux.

            You can remap using AHK. I did it for my father in law a few months ago. AHK runs at startup, he doesn’t have to do anything

        Yes, but I don’t know if any software on windows can actually send ctrl+alt+del to windows given that the key combo is a system interrupt sequence…
