Task Manager Disabled

when i hit ctrl + alt + del, i receive the message that
task manager has been disabled the your administrator.

How do I enable task manager to appear when I hit ctrl +
alt + del?

Thank you for any help you can provide.

Hi Al,

For XP Professional:
1.. Click Start | Run.
2.. Enter gpedit.msc at the command line and click OK.
3.. Select User Configuration | Administrative Templates | System |
Ctrl+Alt+Delete Options | Remove Task Manager.
4.. Double-click the Remove Task Manager option from the Group Policy
menu. You can then disable, enable, or set the policy to Not Configured.
Remember: Since the policy in question is called Remove Task Manager, by
disabling the policy, you are actually enabling the Task Manager.

Disabling or setting this policy to Not Configured should solve the
problem.
For XP Home & Pro:

Set the DisableTaskMgr value to "0"

For XP Pro, go to Start, Run and enter GPEDIT.MSC Go to: User
Configuration, Administrative Templates, System, Control Alt Del Options.
Double click the entry for Disable Task Manager. Set this option to
Disabled or Not Configured. If its already at one of these settings, then
change it, apply the change, then change it back.

For XP Home, click Start, Run and enter REGEDIT Go to:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Policies\System

Look in the right pane for a value called DisableTaskMgr. If found, it
should be set to 0 (zero). If not, double click it and change it to 0. If
it doesn't exist, right click in the right pane, select New, DWord value and
name it DisableTaskMgr. Leave it at 0.
