Hi there....

I have this problem with "RUN" nad "TASKMANAGER"

I dont have "RUN" in the start menu and when i try by pressing "window button" + "R" in the keynoard , the message appears as "this operation has cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator".....

when i use "TASK MANAGER" the taskmanager appears without tabs....

Screen shots is attached...please help me.

Put your cursor arrow inside the right hand side of the Task Manager boarder and double click. This is a standard feature of the Task Manager.

As to the restrictions try this:

Download and run the edit on line 268:

If that doesn't help you need to edit your registry or Group Policy. Is this Home or Pro?

thanks...that solved my task manager...
however, the line 268 in
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm is 268. Restore All Tabs under Internet Options

when i click that iegentabs.reg is downloaded. But when i doubleclick it .... it asks me to find the program to run it.... i dont know wat.

pl help... by the way am using XP Pro with SP2

Check your Registry settings here:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre nt
Version\Policies\Explorer.Value Name: DisallowRun


HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre nt
Version \Policies\Explorer


Also try Kelly's Korner 275. Lift Restrictions - TM, Regedit and CMD


Also just to note these changes are usually an affect of a virus so you might want to run scans etc.

Hi thanks again....

but how am i suppose to edit my registry? since my "run" does not work, how am i to run "regedit"?
Please help , am bit ignorant...
thanks

You can try to Run from the Task Manager > File > New Task (Run...) > regedit

Or try Kelly's Korner 275. Lift Restrictions - TM, Regedit and CMD
