Task Manager Disabled

[Jts87]

I just started to get this problem the past couple of days. Every time I hit Ctrl+Alt+Delete I get a pop up saying task manager has been disabled by your administrator. I'm sure theres a simple answer to fixing it. Can anyone help? Thanks. BTW I'm on Windows XP and I'm registored as the computer administator.

Unless the Administrator disabled it with a screwdriver this should probably be in Software World.

[tesco]

start>run>gpedit.msc>click user configuration>administrative templates>system>ctrl+alt+del options>double click remove task manager>change to not configured, or disabled. enabled means it isn't shown.

if that doesn't fix it then search gogole there are plenty of different ways. ;)

You forgot to mention that he must log on as Administrator first.

Otherwise the changes won&#39;t affect all users.
