Hi all I have this problem for long time ago and now I really need to fix it. I tried to follow a lot of solutions without good result, like: run gpedit.msc byt it is not system folder, etc. Some body can help me to fix those tools? thanks, Claus
Not much information to go on. If you open a command prompt window or start --> Run regedit or taskmgr what happens? Do you get an error message? There are viruses and malware that can cause this symptom. No one can help you without a better description of the problem.
Yes is an error for both options: windows cannot find 'regedit' (or 'taskmgr') make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. to search for a file, click the start button, and then click search. that is the error... any idea?
It could be that your path is messed up. Try this: 1)Start --> Run 2)type cmd 3)in the command window, type 4)cd c:/windows 5)dir regedit*.* 6)see if regedit.exe is there 7)type cd system32 8)dir taksmgr*.* 9)see if taskmgr.exe is there If the files are gone or renamed, you may have a virus. If the files are there, check your path statement by typing "path" (omit quotes) at the command prompt. You may need to re-add c:\windows and c:\windows\system32 to the path statement
