Got a bit of a problem here if anyone can help, there is only me that uses my computer which runs Win XP Home. A while back I put Tweak XP on my computer (demo version) and uninstalled it, since then when I press CTRL ALT DEL my computer comes up with "Task manager has been disabled by your administrator" please help how do I stop this???? It is very annoying!!!

Redownload and reinstall tweak xp, and then change the same setting back to what it was I imagine.

I apologize , I mistook you for someone else.

If your account is an admin account, I don't have XP so I don't know exactly where, but somewhere there's an admin setting that enables the Ctrl+Alt+Del menu; you should be able to find it by searching on google. I'd be more specific if I had XP myself. G'luck.

This should solve your problem:

Better use the second method, if you are not sure about editing the registry!
