re-enabling task manager

I purchased a demo laptop. Using Ctrl+Alt+Del prompts that Task Manager has been disabled by Administrator. I am logged in with admin account but I cannot find where to go to enable Task Manager again. What is the secret ?

I think this is what you are looking for ...

Regedit

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\policies\system]

Delete the line

"DisableTaskMgr"=dword:00000000
