Greyed Task Manager

Expand Post »
Hello All,

When I press Ctrl+Alt+Del i found my task manager bar greyed (not active), can anyone tell me how to reactivate it or any other way to go to task manager ( say a command)?

Your assistance is highly appreciated!

Abdul.

Thank you for the tip. But typing the command its saying ''Task Manager was disabled by you Administrator''. Please how can I enable it?
Also, after right clicking the task bar, it showed the task manager as disabled (Grayed).

Re: Greyed Task Manager

In the group policy editor try:-
Click Start, Run, type gpedit.msc and click OK.
Navigate to...
User Configuration / Administrative Templates / System / Ctrl+Alt+Delete Options / Remove Task Manager.
Double-click the Remove Task Manager option.
Set the policy to Not Configured.

Or in regedit try:-
Click Start, Run and type Regedit.exe
Navigate to...
HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Policies\ System.
Delete the value named DisableTaskMgr.
