In Windows XP you can easily see what time you logged in by pressing Ctrl-Alt-Delete. This would show the Windows Security dialog box, which included the field "Logon Date". But in Windows 7, the ctrl-alt-delete screen no longer shows you this information. Is there an easy way to find out what time you logged in under Windows 7? Can the ctrl-alt-delete screen be modified so it shows the login time again? So far the easiest way I've found to get the login time is to go to a command prompt and run QUSER.

Running query user is pretty simple. It will not be possible (within reason) to modify what is displayed when you press control-alt-delete. Are you saying that you want an alternate way to display the login date/time in the GUI by pressing a hotkey combination? Can you explain the underlying business reason? Are we attempting to verify when someone showed up at work? – Miles Erickson Oct 11 '10 at 19:46
If you're trying to track when people log on or off the best solution is to log that information via logon and logoff scripts. – John Gardeniers Oct 11 '10 at 21:02
I'm just using it to check when I logged in. I do this once a day, every day, so I was in the habit of using ctrl-alt-delete to check it. It will take a few extra steps, but I guess I'll just run quser to check it from here on out. – CowherPower Oct 11 '10 at 21:10
