Re: The task manager has been disabled by your administrator

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Thanks for the quick reply. Under %windir%...\System\Logon/Logoff I see a
"Disable Task Manager" and its setting currently is "Not configured". When I
check the registry I do find as you stated that the REG_DWORD,
DisableTaskMgr, has a value of 1. Do you recommend using the registry editor
to modify the data value since the group policy editor is showing, "Not
configured"?
