The Three Finger Salute is terminology for the Ctrl+Alt+Del keyboard shortcut established by IBM PC co-creator and engineer David Bradley.

It’s common practice to use the three keys whenever a PC fails to load Windows or gets stuck during the boot process. You can lock the computer, switch users, log out, open the task manager, or restart the system by pressing them simultaneously.
