Task Manager disabled???

Solved
Hello, this little message is to say that when I press the three keys "Ctrl" "Alt" and "Del", I get the message "The Task Manager has been disabled by your administrator". And the administrator is me and the only one using the PC. Please, how can I reactivate the Task Manager? Thank you and have a good holiday ........

  1. Hello,

    If you are indeed the administrator.

    Go to this path in regedit:

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

    The name of the key is DisableTaskMgr

    The value must be 0.
    1. Hello, indeed the key was at 1, so I set it to 0, but it's still the same. Thanks anyway, Claude.
    2. Honestly, well done Claude, it worked for me anyway so I don't know if you'll read this message but thank you anyway, you are really awesome!!
