Oops task manager is disabled!

[kamolahy]

I somehow disabled the ability to access task manager. My error says that it has been disabled by my administrator. I am the admin. So how do i fix this?

It could have been done in your registry or in your group policy. First try this:
open your registry editor Start > RUN > regedit
go to the key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
You should see a key name: DisableTaskMgr double click on it and set it to 0.

Alternately, if you are on XP Pro, you could use the group policy editor START > RUN > gpedit.msc
go to User Configuration > Administrative Templates > System > Ctrl+Alt+Delete Options > Remove Task Manager .. double click on Remove task manager and change the policy to "NOT CONFIGURED".
