Though the problem is not new but the solution is some how new to most of the users. As this was the problem i have faced quite few months back on one of the system running Windows XP – When used to run the task manage by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del keys it prompts out the massage that Task Manager has been disabled by the administrator. The same massage comes with Registry Editor and Command Prompt windows also. Then at that time I had purchased a small application to sort out all these problems.

But that was the matter of past now you only have to run the simple script for specific problems and that will be sorted out… .

So to enable task manager simply type the following string in Run and hit Enter

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

When you get the message that Registry Editing is disabled by your administrator simply type the following string in Run and hit Enter,

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

When you get the message that Command Prompt is disabled by your administrator simply type the following string in Run and hit Enter,

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

For the folder option it is quite to be done in another way through registry editor you have enabled earlier. So open registry editor using regedit in run window and press enter. This will open the editor windows.. now look for the following string

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Folder\Hidden]

From the above location Modify the string value “Type” and enter “group” as value data. After the edit is complete hit F5 and look for your Folder Options.
