The following registry hack enables us to disable the Task Manager. Here is a step by step procedure to disable Windows task manager.
Step1: Goto start>run and type “regedit” in the run.
Step2: In the registry navigate to
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\ Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
Step 3: Make the changes according to the following data
Value Name: DisableTaskMgr
Data Type: REG_DWORD (DWORD Value)
Value Data: (0 = default, 1 = disable Task Manager)
Data Type: REG_DWORD (DWORD Value)
Value Data: (0 = default, 1 = disable Task Manager)
Step 4: Then navigate to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\ Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
Step 5: Make the changes according to the following data
Value Name: DisableTaskMgr
Data Type: REG_DWORD (DWORD Value)
Value Data: (0 = default, 1 = disable Task Manager)
Data Type: REG_DWORD (DWORD Value)
Value Data: (0 = default, 1 = disable Task Manager)
Step 6. In the Step 3 and 4, if the values are set to 1 then the Task Manager is disabled. Revert back to 0 in order to enable it back

Is there any way to get around this on a computer that also has the ability to run programs including the command prompt taken away?
yes it’s possible! Even if the command prompt or run is disabled you can access the regedit.
Goto your windows directory (%windir%)and you will find regedit.exe file over there.Double click this and you will get the “registry editor”.Once you are in registry editor you can follow the above steps and proceed further…
