Dear TSF,

When browsing, I found that task manger option was greyed.When pressed Ctrl+Alt+Delete, got error that "Task Manager has been disabled by your administrator." Tried many things but unable to solve. When tried to access Regedit, there also came the same error "regedit has been disabled by your administrator."

I am the only user and administrator of my PC.

Please help.


Thanks,
Mark

Are you logged in as an Admin user? Go to Start/Control Panel/User Accounts see if you are an Admin or not.

Your User Profile may be corrupted or have viruses. Restart the computer and press F8 In the Advanced Boot menu choose Safe Mode. Log in as the Built In Administrator. Create a new user with admin rights. Restart and log in as the new user. Can you access everything now? If so copy your user profile folders to the new profile window.

Well, I am using Windows 7 not XP. But it worked.
