Question

Task manager has been disabled by your administrator - how to fix and how do I log on as administrator

Answer 1

Probably you *are* the administrator. Login to one of the administrator accounts and use the following procedure to enable task manager.

ENABLE TASK MANAGER USING GPEDIT

=====================================

* Click Start

* Click Run

* Enter gpedit.msc in the Open box and click OK

* In the Group Policy settings window

* Select User Configuration

* Select Administrative Templates

* Select System

* Select Ctrl+Alt+Delete options

* Select Remove Task Manager

* Double-click the Remove Task Manager option

* Change the setting to not configured

* Restart or wait few hours

If this does not work you must have a look at the following URL for three alternate methods.

Answer 2

There is a registry key that was disabled.  This happens when the system becomes infected, or your on a company computer and an IT depo has locked the system down.

Either way you need to change the registry value for it using regedit.
