Deleting this key from the registry should restore the original Windows Task Manager: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\taskmgr.exe John Hensley www.resqware.com |

Restore Task Manager
Hi crapit,
The location John posted is correct. Process Explorer replaces Task Manager by adding a value named "Debugger" in the location posted by John. Perhaps you checked at the wrong place. Can you verify again? Click Start, Run and type CMD.EXE and press ENTER. Type the following (no wrap) command and press ENTER reg query "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\taskmgr.exe" /s What is shown in the output? -- Regards, Ramesh Srinivasan, Microsoft MVP [Windows Shell/User] Windows® Troubleshooting http://www.winhelponline.com "crapit" wrote in message ...
