Delete button on mac keyboard windows option

Option and Command keys where standard PC keyboards have Alt and Windows keys. The keyboards are otherwise.In Windows Control-Alt-Delete will bring up the security window allowing you to change users and lock the computer, among other things. There are a few hot-keys on the Mac that can perform the same functions.Apple (s aapl) actually does build a forward delete function into its notebook keyboards, although it requires pressing a modifier key. If you have a GSeries or newer PowerBook, iBook, MacBook Pro, MacBook or MacBook Air, you can delete the character to the right of your cursor by pressing fn-Delete (function-Delete). Like the Control key on Windows/PC.

Formerly known as the Apple key.

MacBook Pro or MacBook Air machines for a while, users notice that the Delete key doesn’t work with default settings. It’s because the Delete key on the keyboard can only be used as back key and can’t be used to Delete files/folders with default settings.

Windows has both Backspace and Delete keys. OS X just has the Delete key that by default works as the Backspace key. 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.
