On my computer when i do control + alt + del its says task manager has been disabled by your administrater?

Question

How do i stop this?

Answer 1

Note. You need windows XP, i don't know if it would work on vista.



ask the admin to unblock it, if you want to get in and change his/her password (and you know they'll allow it), make sure you have windows XP.



Method 1.

1. Get physical access to the machine. Remember that it must have a CD or DVD drive.

2. Download DreamPackPL from the sources.

3. Unzip the downloaded dpl.zip and you’ll get dpl.ISO.

4. Use any burning program that can burn ISO images.

5. After you have the disk, boot from the CD or DVD drive. You will see Windows 2000 Setup and it will load some files.

6. Press “R” to install DreamPackPL.

7. Press “C” to install DreamPackPL by using the recovery console.

8. Select the Windows installation that is currently on the computer (Normally is “1″ if you only have one Windows installed)

9. Backup your original sfcfiles.dll by typing:

“ren C:\Windows\System32\sfcfiles.dll sfcfiles.lld” (without quotes)

10. Copy the hacked file from CD to system32 folder. Type:

“copy D:\i386\pinball.ex_ C:\Windows\System32\sfcfiles.dll” (without quotes and assuming your CD drive is D:)

11. Type “exit”, take out disk and reboot.

12. In the password field, type “dreamon” (without quotes) and DreamPack menu will appear.

13. Click the top graphic on the DreamPack menu and you will get a menu popup.

Hack Windows Login Dreamon

14. Go to commands and enable the options and enable the god command.

Bypass and hack user account passwords

15. Type “god” in the password field to get in Windows.



You can also go to Passwords and select “Logon with wrong password and hash”. This option allows you to login with ANY password.



Note: I was unable to bring up the DreamPackPL for the first time because I have Kaspersky Anti-Virus already running in background. I believe most antivirus already labelled this tool as a Hack-Tool. A Hack-Tool is NOT a virus. DreamPackPL helps you bypass the Windows Login screen and it is not destructive.



Method 2.

1.Click Start then go to run

2.Type CMD and it will bring up command prompt

3.Type Net user, it will come up with a list of all the users on the computer.

4.Now write net user [Name of user] *(dont write name of user use the actual username) and press enter.

5.type in a password twice and it should change it.



Thats how it worked on mine.



Hope is was helpful.

Answer 2

Go to start->Run, (or for Vista, the 'Search' textbox) type in regedit and hit enter.

Hit CTRL-F (for find) and type in DisableTaskMgr

On the right side, double click DisableTaskMgr, enter a 0 into the box which pops up. Click OK.

Wait about 10 seconds, and hit F5 (refresh) to make sure the value hasn't changed back to 1 (more on that a little farther down.)

Go to File, then Exit. That's it.



Having said that, there are three times this will not work:

1) You are not logged in as an administrator.



2) You are on a network with network security policies (corporate networks, domains, etc) In this case, you may not even have DisableTaskMgr in the registry.



3) You have malware. In this case, the malware will change the value back to 1, usually within 5 or 10 seconds. That's where the F5 part comes in. If the value keeps changing back, you've almost certainly got some malware. That's a whole 'nother problem.

Answer 3

if it isnt a virus then u can simply go into the "super*" admin acct (fyi: it isn't showed on the login page).

1. When you are at the login page press ctrl + alt + del

2. a window should pop up asking for a username and password

3. type in "Administrator" (without the quotes)

4. then hit enter, there is usually no password set for this acct. unless your parents know bout it

5. you will be logged in to the "super*" administrator acct



*im calling it "super" because it has more privilages thent he normal administrator acct. (im not 100% sure what tho but u can research it)



6. from there u can find the passwords to all the other accts. (i think) and u can also explore the other accts. to your heart's extent



hope this help =]

Answer 4

I'm sorry....You did not have a GOOD anti-virus running, and you now have this WORM:

w32.Rusty@m

Read about it here:

http://www.symantec.com/security_response/writeup.jsp?docid=2004-021517-4140-99&tabid=2



next click tab REMOVAL on that web page.

Be careful when amending the registry.



And GET THIS:

Avast free Home Edition

Get it here:

http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.ht...



And please do a "thorough" scan as soon as you get it downloaded. The user interface is simple. Click the left side, and in the top menu that comes up, select thorough scan.



When it finds a culprit it throws up an alarm, then you DELETE the culprit, (do not quaranteen).



Then allow it to run all of the time, and you will be completely protected. It will "automatically" update itself, also for free.

You only need to renew your registration once a year, also free.



Note: I KNOW of several people who have used AVG and Norton and have gotten a virus anyway.

Don't go with Zone Alarm as it is hoggy and conflicting.

I've tried them all, and have had wonderful results with DEPENDABLE AVAST for the last 5 years.

The corporation I work for uses the Pro version, and has never has an incident. Avast is your answer.

Answer 5

Just download the 2 KB tool to re-enable task manager from the link below.

Answer 6

Enable Task Manager in Windows XP



Step1.Start Windows in your normal manner.



Step2.Click "Start." Then highlight and click "Run."



Step3.Type "REGEDIT" into the text bar and press "Enter."



Step4.Navigate through the registry, looking for the following directory: "HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Policies\ System."



Step5.Right-click on the "HKEY_CURRENT_USER" and click "New" from the context menu to include a new string. This is only necessary when the necessary directory is not currently present in the registry. By default, Windows XP Home Edition does not include the necessary directory string.



Step6.Click on the "DisableTaskMgr" phrase and delete it. This is the simplest way to do it, but it makes it more of a challenge to repair in the future. You will need to manually reenter the string if you didn't back up first.



Step7.Change the numbers in the boolean section of the entry from one to zero. This will enable the Task Manager in Windows XP. Note that the zero is essentially equivalent to a positive entry in this regard, as the initial string is a negative.



Step8.Change the string manually from the "Run" window of the Start Menu, without having to access the Registry Editor. Simply type "REG add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v DisableTaskMgr /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f" into the text field and press "Enter."

Answer 7

Malware can do this..if ur the Administrator and it suddenly was disabled...i would recommend u try the regedit method that the other user posted..if that doesnt work ur computer could be infected...amd u need to scan it with an antispyware software

Answer 8

it is the same thing that happened to me .... my computer had a few spyware on and some virus... if you don't want to make any more trouble pick up your pc and bring it to a technician or to an expert on the subject...i did in this way and now my pc works better than before... the technician saved all my files and deleted all my old programs...then he put all my documents and basic programs....

Answer 9

If you have Windows XP this may work. Shutdown your computer, turn it on, and as your computer is booting up press f8 repeatedly. Then use the arrows keys to go up to Safe Mode. Hit enter, then hit enter again. Then again, then wait till it loads up then once it does you will see an Administrator icon and you will be aloud to click it and you will have access to everything. (May not work on all computers.)

Answer 10

Administrator cannot disable task manager . The problem is you have a virus in your computer which is bloking task manager so that you cannot kill the process of the virus

Answer 11

through ctrl-alt-delete there is a why to break codes and passwords and locks on things like your computer security and parental controls they just disabled it so you cant do that

Answer 12

And download that.



Worked for me a few times :)

Answer 14

You need to log on as an administrator not guest user

Answer 15

dont worry, just while the machine boots, use safe mode and you can log in without any password and then you know, wha you have to do with the user accounts in Control Panel

Answer 16

Another trick is go to the address bar in Outlook.



Many Admin's forget to write their GPOs to incorporate and include Outlook.



If it isnt blocked, it gives you access to the command prompt.



C:\Windows\System32\taskmgr.exe



Works like a champ some of the time!

Answer 17

sounds like an administrator doesn't want you to use task manager. I doubt it will work but try this instead:

no alt-ctrl-del required... start > run > taskmgr

Answer 18

You have spy ware and a virus, I just recovered from one my computer was doing the exact same thing. download. Live onecare.com. It is a free program by Microsoft and it has everything you need to get rid of that. once it has downloaded. restart you re computer and then as it is starting up hit the f8 key repeatedly until you get a alternate screen then start computer on safe mode. run the program Live onecare. until computer is clean.

Answer 19
