In windows you can disable the usage of ctrl+alt+delete before logging in.
{Via netplwiz or user controlpasswords2 then advanced will give you a window with at the bottom of it this option}.
Is there any possibility that this is able to be done using cmd or powershell?
I have been looking for a solution for about 3 weeks without any success.

From TechNet: You need to change the registry value
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\DisableCAD
- 0 means Users must press CTRL+ALT+DEL to log on to the system. or
- 1 means Users need not press CTRL+ALT+DEL to log on to the system.
Registry values can be set by reg.exe (via cmd.exe) or with built-in mechanisms in PowerShell (Set-Location, Set-ItemProperty).
To enable Ctrl Alt Del logon Screen, run form cmd "reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon" /v "DisableCAD" /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f"
To disable Ctrl Alt Del logon Screen, run from cmd "reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon" /v "DisableCAD" /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f"
If "AutoAdminLogon" exists in this registry path, run from cmd "reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon" /v "AutoAdminLogon" /t REG_SZ /d 0 /f"
