Does Win-10 still have control-alt-delete to get out of jams?
If not is there another way provided?

Yes, I think-takes you to the usual menu of Task Manager, sign out, change password, shut down etc.,

Task Manager is still there - it also has added features such as Startup where you can control your Startup items. Remember when you had to do a msconfig to get to your Startup? No longer - it's a tab in Task Manager.
This probably has way too much information, but scroll down to see what all is available in Task Manager in Windows 10.

That's good because I heard Bill Gates wanted to eliminate it.

The Startup section of the TaskManager was in Windows 8.1 (and probably 8) as well.

If you're talking about this
http://www.theverge.com/2013/9/26/4772680/bill-gates-admits-ctrl-alt-del-was-a-mistakeIt has nothing to do with using Control-Alt-Delete to get to Task Manager. It's about using Control-Alt-Delete to log into a computer -- after Control-Alt-Delete had already been used to reboot a computer or open Task Manager.

Aha I see I didn't hear it quite right. So just sort of ignore this whole post.
