  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.

  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).

• Intermittently after the reboot, the option "Hide when minimized" in the Task Manager Win XP is too effective; the CPU usage icon does not appear in the notification area. Sometimes restart heals, sometimes not.

  The Options menu of the Windows Task Manager includes "hide when minimzed ', to display an icon in the area of notification, but not on the traskbar. I leave that option checked all the time to control the percentage of processor; but sometimes without apparent cause, after I reboot there is no icon in the area. Is there a way to fix this?

  Hello ronks,

  Thank you for visiting the Microsoft answers community.

  The reason for which the icon is not in the system tray is because the Task Manager is closed not minimized when you start your computer. To do this, you could do the following:

  -Go to my computer > C: > Windows > System32
  -Locate in Taskmgr
  -Create a shortcut > right click on the shortcut > click on cut
  -Navigate to my computer > C: > Documents and Settings > username (your username) > Start Menu > programs > startup
  -Paste in the startup folder

  -Right click on the shortcut > click Properties
  -Less run > pull down the menu and select Minimized > click OK > close window

  Now every time that you restart the Task Manager will be launched in a minimized state.

  Hope this helps Chris.H

  Hello

  Restart in safe mode and run the antivirus scans here. You have symptoms of an infected machine. Scanning in safe mode will reduce efforts of the virus to avoid detection.

  To restart in safe mode, restart normally, and when the system resets you can press the F8 key. It is point immediately after the screen logo POST or manufacturer initial of the system, and just before Windows starts to load. This will give you a boot menu where you can choose Safe mode.

  While you're here, you must also download and run the tool free malwarebytes here:http://www.malwarebytes.org/ (choose Safe mode with networking to do this). He can catch something that lack of MSE, no security tool is perfect.

• Windows 8 does not not log on screen, all black dekstop, explorer.exe, disc missing from the Task Manager

  Hey. I am a newbie in this forum. And I really like to make my PC more 'me' even though my parents and brother told me that my PC did not differ from how difficult. But, I still like my PC... ^ ^
  But my PC encountered a problem in my birthday (March 8, ehehe just FYI). Its a terrible birthday gift: (...) Oh, there. Its all started when I accidentally install a skin pack or win 7 in my PC 8 victory. There is nothing wrong with installing proggress except a notification which inform on win 7 Starter has not installed correctly. :( Well, I ignored, first. But after I have it reboot, my dekstop went all black but it still can open the Task Manager. And then I try the system restore. It did not work properly. The only thing made worse. Somehow, my "(le seul compte dans mon PC) DELETED account." In fact, the log on screen consist only of the ease of access and power button with backgorund optomistic. Where are the data of the user, I mean a place where we inserted the password? XC its make me super bad mood. And after some restoration system with various restore points, I restarted my PC in safe mode successfully. Yippie, its worked perfectly in safe mode. I created a new account in safe mode. I thought that my problem more but no. and the bad news is that there is only one user account (a new one) in the journal on the screen! It'll be better I have the new account very well work, but it didn't! The dekstop always all black with no taskbar and it's the same problem as the first.
  I am not really confusing. What should I do? Should I remove a skin pack safe mode? or reinstall win 8 in PC COUNTER? Or do something that you already know the guy?
  Help me. I am so irritated by this problem. In any case, I want to ask one last thing, you prefer something after me or just think it was a charitable organization? Well, I just want to know. And I'll do my best to show my appreciation once you help me. I am so TROUBLED even if today is my birthday! I want a big anniversary with neither party. But its seems no big birthday. Please, help me. His will probably be my MOST BEAUTIFUL GIFT to a person who I know in internet. If you need something detailed about my problem, ask me. I need your response. :") SURE ME MY CRAZY MOM, IF SHE KNEW IF I AM WRONG IN MY PC AGAIN.

  Oh, there. The explorer.exe does not start in normal mode, but it works fine in safe mode. Also, I discovered that the disc is missing from the Task Manager. :) Help?

  Wish you a very happy birthday, Damaris.

  Of course, I can understand the situation you're in right now, and it's a shame. I will be happy to answer your query and try my best to offer my help as a gift for your birthday.

  Let me ask you;

  1. What happened when you tried the system restore?
  2. What was the last time that the computer worked well?
  3. What security software is installed on the computer?
  4. Remember to no particular change in the computer before the show?

  The issue may be due to any dispute of third party software, virus or any system or missing files / corruption. Let's try the methods below and check the status.

  Method 1: Since you are able to start the computer in safe mode without any mistake, I you suggest to start the computer in safe mode and then perform the clean boot to avoid software conflicts.

  Step 1: Start the computer in safe mode (as you are able to start the computer in safe mode with the steps you tried).

  Step 2: Perform the clean boot

  To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  Put your system to the clean boot state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. You must follow the steps in the article mentioned below to perform a clean boot.

  How to perform a clean boot in Windows

  Note: see 'How do I reset the computer to start normally after a boot minimum troubleshooting' to reset the computer starts normally after troubleshooting.

  Method 2: Run Microsoft Safety Scanner

  The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

  Microsoft safety scanner

  Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

  Note: Data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means there is a risk of data loss.

  Method 3: Run the tool File Checker system in case where any system files are missing or corrupted.

  System File Checker is a Windows utility that allows users to find corruptions in Windows system files and restore the damaged files.

  Enter in the right edge of the screen and then click on Search. Or, if you use a mouse, point to the corner bottom right of the screen, then click on Search. Type the command prompt in the Search box, right click invite, and then click run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click allow.

  At the command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER:

  sfc/scannow

  Note: Not close this command prompt window until the audit is 100% full. The results of the analysis will be posted when this process is completed.

  Hope this information is useful. Please feel free to answer in the case where you are facing in the future other problems with Windows.
