How to re-enable Task Manager when disabled by virus

Many virus and Trojans in the network are infecting your computer and they modify the system files. The most common Trojans rewrite the system files or the registry file to disable some mandatory services of your computer. Suppose your computer is infected by virus and you want to remove the virus manually from your computer.

At first you need to know which process are causing the problems. You can identify it from the Task Manager. But the virus programmers are much aware about this system and they make their program such that it disables the Task Manager from the registry.

In such case when you try to open the Task manager by pressing “Alt + Ctrl + Del”, a message appears like “Task Manger has been disabled by your administrator”. So your first object is to enable your Task manager to identify the harmful services that are running in your computer. Next you can kill the processes to stop running. Here I have described some easy and simple way to re-enable The Task Manager.

* Click Start
* Click Run
* Enter gpedit.msc in the Open box and click OK
* In the Group Policy settings window
o Select User Configuration
o Select Administrative Templates
o Select System
o Select Ctrl+Alt+Delete options
o Select Remove Task Manager
o Double-click the Remove Task Manager option

And as I mentioned above, since the policy is Remove Task Manager, by disabling the policy, you are enabling the Task Manager.
