Administrator Tools?

rockmagnet · 01-25-2005, 11:31 AM

After reading other posts, and noting that some users have to go to the Control Panel and use Admin. Tools.......I would like to, however, Admin Tools is not even an option. Yes, the account i'm logged into is the admin. account. Does anyone know what gives? And how do I access my task manager?

You should be able to bring up the Task Manager by using CTRL + ALT + DEL.

Are you saying that there is no Admin Tools icon in Control Panel? This is curious, and may require a fix.

Can you access them by right click Start>properties>Start Menu>Customize>Advanced>under Start Menu items click on Display on the All Programs Menu?

You can also build a custom console by going to Start>Run and typing mmc and then hit Enter. It will bring up a blank console to which you add snap-ins such as Event Viewer and Disk Management.

Just my thoughts, hope this helps.

Right click on My Computer and click Manage. This will give you a majority of the tools you need.
