recently i dled and installed tweak xp, soon after i couldnt type ctrl, alt delete, or right click task bar, then task manager, its grayed out manager, i didnt do any "major" tweaks with tweak xp, maybe even none at all

oh and when i press ctrl,alt,del it says its been disbaled by admin, im pretty sure im the admin because theres no other users on xp home

Tweak xp does a system restore point the first time you launch it. Go to :

%SystemRoot%\System32\restore\rstrui.exe

or

Start---->All programs------->Accessories------->System Tools----->System restore

and set your computer back the way it was before you installed tweak xp and make sure next time you dont mess with any settings if you dont know what they do. :)

Unless you have system restore disabled which it shouldnt by default that should work.

Once again, it will restore your computer the way it was before you installed tweak xp. That means any configuration prior to that is lost and youll have to reconfigure whatever that may be. themes, programs installed, settings, etc.

dont do a system restore. just go here (http://is-it-true.org/nt/xp/registry/rtips23.shtml) and it will tell you how to enable the task manager again.

edit: or you could just find the setting in tweak xp and change it back there :rolleyes: .

edit again: see this as well.......http://www.dougknox.com/xp/utils/xp_taskmgrenab.htm
