There is a registry hack to enable or disable Windows NT TaskManager. The same registry hack applies to Windows 2000 and Windows XP. As part of the enhanced management available in Windows 2000 and Windows XP, rather than risking a registry change, as an administrator you can enable or disable Windows 2000 Pro or Windows XP Pro's TaskManager using Group Policy Editor. This can be applied to the local policy. Note: if you are trying to override your organizations group policy, you can't. As soon as you re-authenticate to the domain, the domain or OU Group Policy will rewrite the registry setting. But if the TaskManager was accidently disabled or you need to control this item for a set of standalone boxes this is for you: # Click Start # Click Run # Regedit # Hive: HKEY_CURRENT_USER # Key: Software\Micr@s@ft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies \System # Name: DisableTaskMgr # Type: REG_DWORD # Value: 1=Enablethis key, that is DISABLE TaskManager # Value: 0=Disablethis key, that is Don't Disable, Enable TaskManager No need to restart your pc . . . . . . . . . Enjoy! |
