How to Enable or Disable RegEdit, Task Manager and CMD

Regedit, Task Manager and cmd; These are the most common thing computer virus will target at. Before they infect any other places, they will first disable your access to those 3 and it is always an indicator for users that something is wrong. That is also the moment when people start to panicking around if they have due assignments or projects with their computers. Usually, most people will just declare a full scan using their antivirus praying to God that He still gives the computer a chance to live. No? I think it is just me then.

Sometimes, after the scanning and cleaning, even though the virus itself has gone, it still may leave some traces of it: your Regedit, Task Manager, cmd and Folder Options (occasionally) are still disabled. Then what is your first approach for this?

Today, I have just found out another good vbs scripts. These scripts can enable and disable your Regedit, Task Manager and cmd easily just by double clicking.

Although its effectiveness has not been tested during the virus or trojan infection, it is still necessary to have these scripts on hand for just-in-case. Here are the direct download links for:

[ RegSwitch ] [ TaskmgrSwitch ] [ cmdSwitch ]


The scripts are solely developed by prashanthpai, from a forum. If you find these scripts have helped you in some way, you may consider to leave a thanks for him.

I know some of the antiviruses may have detected the download links as an embedded Trojan, but the scripts themselves are totally safe to use. You should not worry about that. They are detected as Trojan because the scripts can alter your Windows configuration i.e. the task manager, regedit and cmd.
