IDK what the hell is happening but i keep loosing my task manager in vista...its gone and i need it. Any ideas??
What exactly do you mean by gone? You can't get to it via CTRL + ALT + DEL or right-clicking on the taskbar? Does it not show up or do you get an error?
For other versions of Vista (including Business and above)
1) Browse to the HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System registry key
2) Look for a value called "DisableTaskMgr" and delete it.
If this is on a domain, you may or may not have access to the properties as the option to disable the task manager may be pushed down through the group policies at the domain level.
I have a shortcut to the exe on my desktop for even easier access. it can be found here C:\Windows\System32\taskmgr.exe
Worked like a champ..why does it do that?
