How to recover windows files option tool and activate the Task Manager?

I used windows xp, Service Pack 3... I can't use the tool option records because it is not displayed in the Tools menu and option when I press ctrl + alt + delete, then said the task manager has been disable by your administrator... and my standard buttons search option does not work...

It's a shame that we know so little on your system, windows xp, Service Pack 3...

This is because the forums MS Answers does not prompt for information, when a new question is asked.

Thank you MS Answers, allowing the resolution of simple problems as frustrating and a lot of time as possible.

Your system has or has had a malware infection.

Whatever not specified antivirus/antimalware software or you use requests have failed to protect your system.  Remember to replace or supplement / them.

I would follow this diet to relieve your symptoms, immediate and then followed with some free and respectable malware scanners.

Both scanners by operating clean, it would be time to fix any problems.

Part 1:

If you see things like this:

You do not have sufficient security privileges to restore your system.
The System Restore tab is missing from the my computer properties.
System Restore has been disabled by group policy.  To turn on system restore, contact your domain administrator.
The System Restore tab is available, but the turn off System Restore (disabled by Group Policy) box is grayed out.
The task manager has been disabled by your system administrator.
The registry editor has been disabled by your system administrator.
The task manager has been disabled by group policy.
The registry editor has been disabled by group policy.
The command prompt has been disabled by your administrator.  Press a key to continue...
The operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer.  Please contact your system administrator.
The "Run" option is missing from the start menu.
The option "Log off."... ' is missing from the Start Menu.

The usual advice are something in the sense of "something has been disabled in the group policy...". ", and it is probably true that something has been disabled, but you know what something is and what it takes to do about it.

If you are using XP Home Edition, you will get away with advice to use the Group Policy Editor, because there is no Group Policy Editor in XP Home and that really doesn't tell you where to look in group policy, even if you run the Group Policy Editor.

You need a complete solution that works for all versions of XP and requires no hunting around in the Group Policy Editor or registry to find where things are that have been disabled.

Unless you have disabled these things on purpose, chances are good that your system has a malware infection.  The malware knows what tools you use to try to find and remove, for the malware disables the things you are more likely to consume and prevents them from running if you can't find the malware and remove it.

If your system has this kind of affliction, all malicious software tools you currently use or have used failed to protect your system so that you can expand your horizons malware detection and prevention to prevent these kinds of afflictions in the first place.

The malware will be happy you trick into thinking that you need to so something drastic to fix your system - as a facility repair, system restore point or a total reinstallation of XP.  This is what it would be like you, but these measures are not necessary.

You must solve the immediate problem of the tools does not, then scan your system for malware when you are finished.

No matter what kind of malware you've used analytical tools, they are unlikely to solve this problem, because they cannot tell if the changes made to your system have been on purpose (you or an administrator who makes them) or some malware changed them, so the analysis tools will let these things alone (it's usually a good thing).

If your system is afflicted in this way, there are probably other things that also do not work - like the registry editor, System Restore and the command prompt, so fix them all at once even if you have not discovered they are broken again.

These commands from registry removes the registry entries that are stop opening programs.  Although the registry entries do not exist, these commands are safe to run and will work for all versions of XP.

Before making any changes to your registry, back up the registry with this free and popular tool:

http://www.SnapFiles.com/get/ERUNT.html

Open Notepad to create a new text file:

Click Start, run and enter in the box:

notebook

Click OK to open a new Notepad file.

Copy and paste the following lines of text into the new Notepad file.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System]
"DisableTaskMgr" = -.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System]
"DisableRegistryTools" = -.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System]
"DisableCMD" = -.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionPoliciesSystem\\\]
"DisableTaskMgr" = -.
[HKEY_USERS\.default\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System]
"DisableTaskMgr" = -.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]
"DisableCAD" = DWORD: 00000000
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\SystemRestore]
"DisableConfig" = -.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\SystemRestore]
"DisableSR" = -.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"NoRun" = -.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"NoRun" = -.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"NoClose" = -.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"NoClose" = -.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"NoSetTaskbar" = -.

Save the new text file with extension .reg on your desktop or somewhere you can remember with a name you can remember, something like:

enableit.reg

After you save the file, close Notepad.

Locate the file enableit.reg on your desktop and double-click it.

Alternatively, you can right-click on the enableit.reg file, choose open with... and select the registry editor.

Answer in the affirmative to the question... Are you sure you want to add the information in the registry?

You should then see a message that information has been registered in the register.

Reboot your system and test.

You can delete the enableit.reg file when you are finished.

If the registry editor has also been disabled, we first fix (not a problem).

    I had a restore of the system without success and now all my files (music, photos, documents, PDF files, vids, etc) are missing.  My itunes still recognizes the path to music and can play everything.  Same thing with VLC player and photos.   For example, if I go in VLC player and watch my playlist, I see that info a video is C:\Users\kevarendt\Desktop\Vids\... and the player will play the video.  However, I can't file my own.  He is no longer on my desk, where he was saved, but the path always displays it's there.  My drive is still in his usual capacity, so none of my files have been deleted.  I can't even to my user account.  All I see is a Public folder in C:\Users\.  What happened to my user account?  All the paths to my files have nothing to show, but it's still there but invisible.  How can I access it.  I use Vista Home Premium.

  • How can I enable the Task Manager after recovering from an attack of Win32.GEMA

    Hello

    I am running Windows XP SP3.

    I have recently had an attack of the Win32.GEMA Trojan horse. Details of it are here: http://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/Threat/Encyclopedia/Entry.aspx?Name=Trojan%3AWin32%2FRansirac.G

    I recovered my system using:

    AVG Rescue Disk

    Kaspersky Rescue Disk

    BitDefender Rescue Disk

    Scan of MalwareBytes

    McAffee analysis

    Hitman Pro Scan

    Spybot scan

    Eusing Registry Cleaner

    CCleaner

    Overkill maybe? But it worked... Up to now

    Apparently, the Trojan horse disables the Task Manager and that is I'm having bad to restore.

    I followed the advice in this article from Microsoft - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/913623/ - but when I followed this part

    To set the DisableTaskMgr registry entry to 0 for a specific user, follow these steps:

    1. Shut down the computer.
    2. Log the computer by using a user account with administrator permissions.
    3. Click Start, click run, type regedit in the Open box, and then click OK.
    4. In the left pane, click the following registry subkey:
      HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
    5. In the right pane, double-click DisableTaskMgr.
    6. In the value data box, type 0, and then click OK.
    7. On the file menu, click exit.
    8. Restart the computer.

    N ° 5 says that disable TaskMgr should appear in the right pane, but there is no entry to disable TaskMgr. All it is an icon of the small 'ab' (the default) beside it, then, REG_SZ.

    Then I tried to follow this part of the article from Microsoft

    To set the DisableTaskMgr registry entry to 0 for all users, follow these steps:

    1. Shut down the computer.
    2. Log the computer by using a user account with administrator permissions.
    3. Click Start, click run, type regedit in the Open box, and then click OK.
    4. In the left pane, click the following registry subkey:
      HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionPoliciesSystem\\\
    5. In the right pane, double-click DisableTaskMgr.
    6. In the value data box, type 0, and then click OK.
    7. On the file menu, click exit.
    8. Restart the computer.

    This time off TaskMgr was in the right pane - this time with a little "ohho? icon followed REG_DWORD

    I tried to create a new entry for the current user by copying one for all users, but not joy.

    Any suggestions?

    CTRL + Alt + Del does not receive any reaction whatsoever, no Ctrl + Shift + Esc or click with the right button on the barv task and selecting the Task Manager

    These KB articles are for a different problem when you receive these messages when you run the Task Manager...

    Some malicious software is aware of the methods you're most likely to use to find and remove it (Task Manager, System Restore, command prompt, Internet, Google, etc.)

    The malware does not allows you to use things like the Task Manager to find and remove, so it prevents them from becoming a process running on the system and the process will not start or the process will be completed as soon as it is launched.

    The malware is happier when he let you think you need to use system restore, a repair install or reinstall your XP from scratch to fix your system when none of this is necessary.

    You can fool the malware (and then fix it).

    Assuming that your Windows is installed on your drive C, using Windows Explorer, navigate to the folder c:\windows\system32 and locate taskmgr.exe.

    Copy the taskmgr.exe file and rename the copy something malicious software will not recognize.  I like to call the copy:

    c:\windows\system32\jose.exe

    Double-click on jose.exe and see if the Windows Task Manager window opens now.

    The problem is the malware won't let the taskmgr.exe a running process, but he does not know jose.exe as a running process in order to thwart you all (I have a feeling that he will well a day on jose.exe).

    Will not 'fix' your task manager, but at least you will know whether or not the Task Manager mechanism works (taskmgr.exe still not start properly).  If you try to remove some malware and the need to use the Task Manager, you can simply launch jose.exe (double-click) instead, but will be still infected your system.

  • When I open the Task Manager and select "Show processes from all users" there are 2 files virus csrss.exe?

    original title: virus csrss.exe?

    I use Vista Home Premium.  When I open the Task Manager and select "Show processes from all users" there are 2 files csrss.exe.  I learned that this indicates that I was infected by a virus.  Is this the case?

    Hi Julie,.

    Did you the latest changes on the system?

    Csrss.exe is Client/Server Runtime Subsystem.  All the Microsoft system has file csrss.exe running in the Task Manager, but it is likely to be infected by others. If it uses a lot of time processor and extremely abnormal in activities in the Task Manager, you can run a scan of the system security.

    You can read the following article to download the Microsoft Safety Scanner and perform a full scan on your computer.

  • Desktop does not - black screen with the cursor and access to Task Manager

    Well, I played recent MMO and to do this, I had to update my sound drivers and graphics. I managed to finish my first uninstall all the old drivers-flawless and it worked perfectly thereafter with no video issues (that I had before the uninstall, but nothing harmful to the system). Eventually however, I started to get some pop ups Windows 2008 C++ REDIS saying that atieclxx.exe had asked to be terminated in an unusual way. No problem, I close the error message and everything always works as it should. No random crashes.

    My problem is that wermgr.exe (I am fairly certain that this is the title, but I did not work right now), began leaving me with a black screen and the cursor when I connect. In most cases, I can open the Task Manager by pressing Ctrl + Alt + Delete, however, it sometimes won't start, and when I start to kill unnecessary tasks, they take some time to die. I know that black screens are often a defective start of explorer.exe, which manages office and file, browsers so I use the Task Manager to run it and it dies or continues to do nothing without making the office. Whenever this happens, wermgr.exe was running (Windows error handler). When I kill this task, which often has duplicates, I can finally get explorer.exe to load. I have the same problem with safe mode, except that the display shows the version of windows and the details in each corner until explorer.exe load finally. I've also had freezing issues long whenever Werfault.exe jump upward and the only thing that those fixed has been disable Werfault.exe in the services menu.
    It is clear to me that the windows error reporting programs consume a lot of the capacity of the CPU of my computer and they are probably the source of the biggest problems I'm having. I should stop start, or they are just neutral, awakened by a bigger problem?
    On a smaller note, C++ error is probably due to me not having is not the correct edition of the redistributable C++ installed, or perhaps too many distributions. The last edition, I have installed is 10.0.40219 of the x 86 and x 64 redistributable and runtimes (2010). Are the oldest, I installed some updates ATL and 5 2005 Redistributable (2 x 64 versions). Atieclxx.exe is the program having the pop-ups demand 'unusual termination. " The version of my ATI Radeon drivers are included in Version 2012.1116.1515.27190 of the AMD VISION Engine Control Center.
    Now, finally, I think it's useless, I'll give you my specs:
    OS: Windows 7 Home Premium, 64-bit
    Processor: AMD Athlon TF-20, 1.60 GHz
    RAM: 3.00 GB
    Model: Acer Aspire 5534
    BIOS: InsydeH2O V1.12
    Graphics card: ATI Radeon HD 3200, using aticfx64.dll and aticfx32.dll
    I do not believe that a reinstallation is necessary, because I got my computer in good enough condition that I can write this message and use it as usual, however, it's a nuisance to do, because it requires waiting a few minutes while the wermgr.exe process is stopped by the Task Manager.

    HiJack This help "fix selected", I removed the SmartShopper and BHO entry no name, as well as a few more suspicious looking files and those to the left of the old installs (windowblinds). I also deleted all entries in ø16 because I didn't need them and didn't like their operation. Then, I deleted two mistakes of R3, who looked extremely suspicious.

    IT'S FIXED NOW!
    I restarted and connected to be greeted with my office. The second csrss.exe is still underway, and atieclxx.exe works well as well. Although they appear to be the cause of the problem, because I am intimately familiar with the process of my computer, it is also clear that many of the comes from problems of registry and the programs that I have only half managed to uninstall. I hope this helps people to the problem in the future, and if my problem recur soon, I will return to this article with more information.
    As a final note, I was extremely impressed with HiJack this, because I used it for the first time in order to solve this problem. He kindly explained to me why he alerted me and what kind of problems listed that would cause a lot of things helped me to decide what to remove. Now I know why divert this is recommended everywhere on the internet as a diagnostic tool.
    To not appear as an advertising bot, but it's the tool that solved my problem for this, I have it suggests. in any case, good luck and I hope you can fix this problem yourself. With the help of google, an open mind and careful decision making, it is possible to solve anything. I do not recommend using a shotgun to do so ;)
