| 860423 | 2010-02-22 00:55:00 | Hi guys, I am trying to find out how you can enable and disable the "NEW TASK" button in the Task Manager using gpedit. I have a thin client which I need to enable this on but cannot find how to do this. I managed to successfully re-eanble the Task Manager but the "NEW TASK" button is still greyd out. Anyone got any ideas on this? I haven't found anything accurate enough on the web as yet. Thanks, |

| 860427 | 2010-02-22 03:45:00 | Interesting, I'm on windows 7 and have new task(run) in my task manager. But I personally just use windows + r, much easier | narutophantom (12610) | ||

| 860429 | 2010-02-22 04:30:00 | Try this -- Just looked on W7 ULT and its there. Example (www.imagef1.net.nz) Other OS's, Server 2003 Terminal server should be similar Open gpedit --- User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Task Scheduler double clink or open "Disable New Task Creation" Enable or disable ( opposite to what you have now) |

| 860431 | 2010-02-22 04:41:00 | support.microsoft.com Policy:Remove Run item from Start Menu Description:Removes the ability to execute programs from the Run option on the Start menu, Task Manager, or by pressing Winkey + R. Also removes the corresponding checkbox from the Start menu customization CPL. Registry Value:"NoRun" Note that the OP never mentioned what the OS was, but I am assuming XP as the most likely OS See attached screenshot from group policy editor(also W7 ULT) Blam |

| 860432 | 2010-02-22 04:50:00 | I tried it on XP Pro - didn't work even after a reboot . Being gpedit, it has to be a server or XP pro / 2000 as home versions dont have that function . Removes the ability to execute programs from the Run option Really helpful that is, disables many options when "run" wont work . |
