It realy worked !

Many thanks to you and your team.

Keep up the good work !

Hi abhishek,

My problem is that Taskmanager is grayed out from start bar & Ctrl+Alt+Del and it wont even work from the run prompt. I am running XP Home so I don’t have the gpedit.msc. I did a search in the registry (using regedit which works!!!) and found the Disable TaskMgr entry but that was set to 0. I have a backup drive in my machine which I can boot from if I change my drive order and the TaskMan.exe in that Windows dir is exactly the same as the one on my main boot drive (well it has the same date & size).

Any Ideas? I really don’t want to have to re-install & I can’t find my XP disc anyway, I still have the license key though!!

Thank in advance

holy u did it u save me i get this task manager admin problem when i open my tumbdrive with virus and when i click heal with avg warning after i scan i get this problem thanks 2 yu i get my task manager back =) yu the best

remove virus ntdetec1.exe will solve the problem
To remove it, run the following commands at the command prompt:

taskkill /im cmrss.exe
taskkill /im ntdetec1.exe
taskkill /im shell32.exe

Now, make sure you are in the root drive of your system. For example, if your Windows in installed in C:, make sure your prompt shows C:\>
Now, run the command..

attrib ntdetec1 -s -h /s /d

This will make the folder visible in explorer. Now you can Shift+Delete the folder from explorer.

Also, you might need to delete the following registry key (if it is present)

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\Explorer\ Run\”winlogon” = “C:\ntdetec1\run.exe”

Dear Trouble fixers,

To enable disabled Task manager and Regedit, you may use the software TaskManagerFix.exe and RegistryFix.exe to fix the trouble.

2) Task Manager Disabled

After removing the virus completely from our system, you’ll face new problems such as you can no longer bring up Windows Task Manager from CTRL+ALT+DEL. You get the error message saying “Task Manager has been disabled by your administrator”.

You think that it’s easy to fix this problem by going to Registry Editor but you can’t! You get the error message “Registry editing has been disabled by your administrator“.
Folder Options and even Show Hidden Files & Folder is disabled! How frustrating! Don’t worry, here’s how to restore your Windows Task Manager, Registry Editor, Folder Options and Show hidden files & folders.

This problem is most commonly caused by a virus called “Brontok“. Brontok virus will make some changes to the system restrictions in order to hide itself from easy detection and also from easy cleaning. Here’s a free tool called Remove Restrictions Tool (RRT) which is able to re-enables all what the virus had previously disabled, and gives you back the control over your own computer.

Small and easy to use. Make sure you boot in to Safe Mode to use Remove Restrictions Tool (RRT). Just click on the buttons and it’ll do it’s job……………………

Thanks!!! this REALLY works! finally!

Navigate to the following path:

Thanks in advance..

it worked super. thanks

Neither method in the article helped. Tried both methods. Haven’t looked through all the comments (yet).

The gpedit.msc instructions were a bit off for Windows XP (Pro) for Tablet PC, but close enough that I could follow them. The issue there was that “Remove Task Manager” was already set to “Not configured.” So that’s not the cause of my problems.

Second, the RegEdit instructions assumed there’d be a DisableTaskMgr key in my registry. There isn’t.

A possibly related issue — my administrative tools folder is empty, and tips online that I’ve followed to fix that issue have likewise not been successful.

well i tried all solutions for restoring task manager available on the internet … but the problem is even after editing the registry i get a 1 or 2 second time to start the taskmanager after that automatically the registry gets modified … arent there any way to save the registry . On top of all this problm started right after installing the os … there was no chance of any virus attack , it would not solve even if i format the system .

well i guess i have made mahself clear in the above post … if not … the bottomline is that the registy gets modified automatically within 1 or 2 secs after i edit it … what can i do ??

My taskmgr was disabled by the Windows Protection Suite virus. I don’t get any error msgs, just nothing happens when I hit ctl-alt-del or type taskmgr in the Run command. I tried the regedit suggestion, but there is no subfolder “system” for the path HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System, and no value DisableTaskMgr anywhere in the registry. I am using XP home edition.

It works you are a star

i manage to open the task manager. but for about 5secs. the REG_DWORD DisableTaskMgr keeps returning.. how do i solve this probem

thanks for sharing but in xp most of the time task manager disabled cause of some virus attacks.

This site was the best i have ever used so quick and easy.Thanks again
