    first try this - click start then run type

    taskmgr

    then click ok > does this work > if not then the snap in may be disabled or been deleted

    Goto the control panel then add and remove programs > then windows components > just take all the ticks out of the boxes and then click ok (remember which ones you took the ticks out of) then restart your PC

    Now go back the add and remove and put the tick back and make sure assessories is tick and managment is ticked - try this

    or if you are comfortable with this ; you local domain policy may have blocked you

    Start -> Run ->

    Gpedit.msc

    Navigate to "User Configuration" -> "Administrative Templates" -> "System" -> "Ctrl+Alt+Del Options"

    In the right side of the screen verity that "Remove Task Manager"" option set to "Disable" or "Not Configured"

    close this program now then

    Start -> Run -> type

    gpupdate /force - click ok

    see if this works if not and only do this if you are comfortable with dealing with the windows registry

    Start -> Run -> type

    regedit

    now you should see yellow folders down the left with plus's

    click on the plus next to each of the file structures below and on the last file - highlight it - then you should get some values on the right hand window ensure that they are set to - dword:00000000

    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System]

    "DisableTaskMgr"=dword:00000000

    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Group Policy Objects\LocalUser\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System]

    "DisableTaskMgr"=dword:00000000

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\system\]

    "DisableTaskMgr"=dword:00000000

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]

    "DisableCAD"=dword:00000000

    once this is done click on the file then exit and the restart your computer

    follow these steps and this shoudl sort this problem out for you

    In WinXP , simultaneously press the CTRL-ALT-DELETE key. When the window pops up, select Task Manager from it.

  • 1 decade ago

    Press Ctrl-Shift-Esc, and the Task Manager will pop up.

    With windows XP you hold Ctrl and Alt and press Delete it should pop up

    If not then your on your own

    then you have a serious problem
