Well Suddenly when I was trying to open the tast manager it displayed that It was disabled by The adminstrator (In the computer) And I am the only user..Someone help please? I can't use the Laptop without the task manager. :\

I also recommend you to run a virus scan :)

Yeah, most likely a virus.
Highly doubt your parents would take your computer and disable your task manager.

You can manually edit your registry to re-enable it.

If you do ANYTHING in regedit I don't say to, you can severely f*ck up your computer. So FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS PERFECTLY.

Got to regedit (can use run for this if you don't know how).
Expand
HKEY_CURRENT_USER > Software > Microsoft > Windows > CurrentVersion > Policies > System
If you see a key on the right under (Default) called DisableTaskMgr look at the data value.
If it's 0x00000000 (0) your task manager should be working fine.
If it's 0x00000000 (1) then that means it's disabled.
You can right click on the name "DisableTaskMgrkey", click edit and change the value to 0 instead of 1.



After you enable it you should clean your computer out thoroughly, as you are most likely infected with a nasty that doesn't want you to get rid of it easily.
Having task manager enabled should help, which is why I say 'after'.

Nothing happened as in It didn't find any viruses or as in it didn't load up or it's just a tech problem with the program? I have kaspersky (bought it) and It works just fine.. If it's the program not working then try getting AVG Antivirus.

Shall i buy it or its free?



Drunk Mario

AVG is free. and Kaspersky is AMAZING so if it works good for you i recommend buying it.

There is a trial version you should try though.. And what's the problem with the virus scan?

This is my recommendation, but I don't know if you want to follow it.
If I were you, I would backup all my important files off the computer, format, and re-install windows.


Yeah I will do this but I am worried because this laptop isn't mine..Its dad's and it has got important things.



Drunk Mario

Like he said, back it up first! ;)
