Most of the people ask themselves when they found out that their task manager got disabled and ask how that happened , well the only ways to disable a task manager is by the following stuff :

• Viruses
  


• Keyloggers
  


• RATs
  


• Disabling it manually

Let's start by a fast method which is by creating a batch file . Create two new text documents and rename one to enable.bat when you click enter an error will appear saying "If you change a file name extension, the file may become unusable. Are you sure you want to change it" all you have to do is click yes .

Now right click on enable.bat and click Edit and insert this code :

Code

@echo off
ECHO REGEDIT4 > %WINDIR%\DXM.REG
echo. >> %WINDIR%\DXM.reg

echo [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System] >> %WINDIR%\DXM.reg
echo "DisableTaskMgr"=dword:0 >> %WINDIR%\DXM.reg

echo [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System] >> %WINDIR%\DXM.reg
echo "DisableTaskMgr"=dword:0 >> %WINDIR%\DXM.reg

start /w regedit /s %WINDIR%\DXM.reg

Now open this batch file and your task manager will be enabled !🤗

Let's head over to the second method where we are going to use gpedit.msc .
Click the start and go to run( In case of windows 7 and vista click start and type run ) then type in gpedit.msc !

If you can't open it do the following :
Type "mmc" at Run and press enter

Click on file menu and select Add/Remove Snap-in then click on add and select group policy object editor and click add now click finish.
Click close and group policy object editor will appear in the dialog box make sure to click OK then you can access the group policy from MMC then undo all the changes you've made !
NOTE: Some OS's don't allow the use of gpedit.msc .

If you open gpedit.msc then go to the following :

Now double click on remove task manager if it says Not configured or Enable then choose Disable . Then click on OK and there you go ! You enabled your task manager !

Now for the third method . The third method is by using scripts .

Code

Option Explicit

'Declare variables
Dim WSHShell, n, MyBox, p, t, mustboot, errnum, vers
Dim enab, disab, jobfunc, itemtype

Set WSHShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
p = "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System\"
p = p & "DisableRegistryTools"
itemtype = "REG_DWORD"
mustboot = "Log off and back on, or restart your pc to" & vbCR & "effect the changes"
enab = "ENABLED"
disab = "DISABLED"
jobfunc = "Registry Editing Tools are now "

'This section tries to read the registry key value. If not present an
'error is generated.  Normal error return should be 0 if value is
'present
t = "Confirmation"
Err.Clear
On Error Resume Next
n = WSHShell.RegRead (p)
On Error Goto 0
errnum = Err.Number

if errnum <> 0 then
'Create the registry key value for DisableRegistryTools with value 0
    WSHShell.RegWrite p, 0, itemtype
End If

'If the key is present, or was created, it is toggled
'Confirmations can be disabled by commenting out
'the two MyBox lines below

If n = 0 Then
    n = 1
WSHShell.RegWrite p, n, itemtype
Mybox = MsgBox(jobfunc & disab & vbCR & mustboot, 4096, t)
ElseIf n = 1 then
    n = 0
WSHShell.RegWrite p, n, itemtype
Mybox = MsgBox(jobfunc & enab & vbCR & mustboot, 4096, t)
End If

Save it as all files and name it to regtools.vbs and then just double click it and run it !
Now for the other script copy the following code :

Code

REGEDIT4
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ CurrentVersion\Policies\System] "DisableTaskMgr"=dword:0

Name the file as fix.reg save it as type to all files on your desktop then double click on the file when it prompts to merge click yes .
NOTE:Make sure there are NO blank lines before REGEDIT4 .

Fourth method is by using the following :
Open up Run (Windows key +R), and run the code below.

Code

REG add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v DisableRegistryTools /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f

This should enable registry. You can enable task manager the same way.

Code

REG add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v DisableTaskMgr /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
