Sometimes viruses or something can disable task manager, regedit, and some more I will do research on.
I often see people making threads about this elsewhere, so I decided to post this here, because I'm cool like that

- Go to start > run
- Type the following command and hit enter
Code:REG add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v DisableTaskMgr /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
To re-enable Regedit:
- Click Start -> Run. Type this command in Run box and press Ok.
Code:REG add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v DisableRegistryTools /t REG_DWORD /d 0
- When a prompt opens and says:
Value DisableRegistryTools exists, overwrite (Y/N)? - After typing yes type this into start > run box as well
Code:REG add HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v DisableRegistryTools /t REG_DWORD /d 0
- It then prompts you with:
Code:Value DisableRegistryTools exists, overwrite (Y/N)? Put in 'yes' and hit enter again
To re-enable command prompt:
- Navigate to start > run >
- Copy / Paste the following code:
Code:REG add HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System /v DisableCMD /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
- Hit enter, and it's back
