Thumbs down Disabled Task Manager, Again!
Hey guys,


Every time my computer turns back on from reseting or being off, the task manager becomes disabled. GarHar gave me the, is it a code? for the command prompt to put in, and I do enter it into the command prompt, and the Task Manager works untill I reset or turn off the computer. I hope that was somewhat clear and simple to read. help please.

Hi rayboto...
What was the comand again?

I'll write a batch file for you to put in your startup directory to run each time you restart windows.

It's only a work around - but i'm at work atm and can't really look into it too much.

ok..good?? im fantastic

Ok, from memory i thought it was more of a complex command...but apparantly i was wrong

Just copy the command into notepad, and save it as task.bat
Then copy that into your startup directory.

Very easy

That's RIGHT! :P

save it whereever you like C:\bobobobobobob if you really want
Just create a shortcut in your startup directory...or copy the file entirely there...either way is good
