Error Message: “Task Manager has been disabled by your administrator”

Viruses are always trying to cover their tracks. This repair was no exception…. Error Message: “Task Manager has been disabled by your administrator”. There was no way anyone using this computer would even be capable of securing “Task Manager”. After a bit of research I came across two things, the first was that “Spybot” picked up this problem. The second was that, “Spybot” could only half-repair the problem. After a restart I found that either typing

REG add HKCUSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionPoliciesSystem /v DisableTaskMgr /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f

into the “run command”

Or go to “Run” and type “Regedit” and navigate to

HKEY_CURRENT_USER Software Microsoft Windows CurrentVersion Policies System

and delete “DisableTaskMgr”

cleared the problem right up.
