how to turn on task manager

[shaozhong]

When I use ctrl+alt+del to access task manager, the task manager bottom
is de-active. I tried to use ctrl+shift+Esc to directly open task
manager and got an message of "the task manager has been turned off by
administrator". How do I turn task manager on? My OS is WIN 2000
Professinal. Thanks.

It's usually spyware/ junkware that sets this Reg_Dword decimal value to 1

Set it to 0

DisableTaskMgr
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System

where I can change Reg_Dword. Thanks again.
