• 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

  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).

• My refuses to mouse click until I opened the task manager - what could be the cause?

  I installed Windows 7 pro on my laptop (64 bit) and for some reason, when I start the computer, on which the mouse will be able to move, but can't select anything or click. When I fly over things that should light up, nothing seems to happen. I have similar issues - when I open the Task Manager, the mouse begins to click. In fact, when I press Ctrl + Alt + Delete and with the pointer of the mouse on "Start Task Manager" I can see the mouse commit but I don't know what process is engaged to achieve. I can also drag files in folders or use the scroll wheel with my mouse. I use a Lenovo laptop on a dock with a keyboard and a Microsoft wireless mouse. I seem to be able to drag the files when I'm not on the dock. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance!

• Black screen - cannot run Explorer.exe with Task Manager

  Hi guys

  I've been Googling the answer to that for the last day and nothing seemed to work.

  Basically, my portable was working fine until this morning, when I restarted. After the home screen, just a rear screen with the mouse. CTRL ALT DEL and everything still works normally. I can run programs with the Task Manager, but can not run explorer.exe. He returned in the process for about 10 seconds then disappears. I think that it is the cause of the black screen. I tried downloading an own explorer.exe and replace the explorer.exe in C:\Windows\. My computer it did not as he said I need the permission of the administrator, but of course, I am the Admin so I don't know what that's all.
  I tried to restart in Mode safe and that works very well, still, I can't replace the explorer.exe in the C:\Windows\ because I do not have the administrative authorization. I tried to change it in the Security tab of the properties, or impossible.
  I also tried to update the driver software graphics cards, checked the Shell in the registry value and made sure it's explorer.exe, used the difficulty of black of Pevx screen, used HitmanPro and Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool to scan and remove malware. I even did a scf/scannow, checked driver C a mistake (which took 3 hours!), let Windows Startup Repair to fix things, tried a system restore but failed. He says that the anti-virus (Sophos) prevented the restoration of the system, so I've temporarily disabled its access scanning on but still unable to restore to a previous (11/01). Program changes that recent such as listed in the system restore is Google + Auto BackUp who came when set Picasa to date there 3 days and a more recent version of Facebook video call I've ever used. I am now running a scan with Sophos, not too promising.
  So yes, I tried everything. I think that now, there are only three options:

  1 somehow replace the explorer.exe in C:\Windows\ with this new cool explorer.exe, which I downloaded, with the permission of the administrator
  2. try another restore of the system, but I'm sure that nothing will happen, already tried three times.
  3 reinstall Windows 7 Edition Home Premium. It will be a real pain.

  So please help me! I have courses of due on Monday and this portable do not let me what that be done. Thank you!!!

  Please ignore the other my long answer. The problem has now been resolved.

  After trying all kind of scans, drinking and sobbing, I came across TDSS Killer from Kaspersky, who managed to catch a 1 latest unique malicious software (that I was too stupid and really looked hopeless and remember the name of), it cures the problem after reboot. Now, the laptop works well like you wouldn't believe. I'm still confused but way too happy now to care. Thanks a lot for your help nevertheless!

• 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

  Thank you in anticipation

  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.

• MS can add two functions to the "Task Manager"?

  I want a quick way to remove unwanted programs from my computer (XP Pro);
  What I think is the fastest and easiest way to remove programs that collide,
  marketing of spyware and other items I don't want: press 'Ctrl-Alt-Del ".
  and use the 'Task Manager' program; but, with a new option in "Applications":

  I should be able to "end program and delete. This new function ("end of program and remove")

  stop the program to run as the program "ends".
  function and it would also remove the program from your computer; same thing for
  the window of 'process '.

  There are tracking as "The ADService.exe" software that
  I also want to 'End the process' and 'Delete' and 'Block' to be ever
  installed again.  The 'Task Manager' would be a simple and great place
  to add these functions. The function 'Block' is also a new feature for "Task Manager."

  Hey MikePressman,

  The virus infestation rarely disables the Task Manager. Check if the DisableTaskMgr key exists in the registry editor.

  Important: This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click the following windows Help article.

  Back up the registry

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/back-up-the-registry

  a. go to start and type regedit.exe.

  b. navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System

  c. on the right side, find a REG_DWORD value called DisableTaskMgr.

  d. If the key exists, you can delete the key or double-click on it and set its value to 0 to enable the taskbar.

  e. close Regedit.exe

  f. restart the computer.

  Task Manager should be back now.
