Private Sub SetKeyDataValue(KeyValueData As Integer)
Dim OpenKey As Long, SetValue As Long, hKey As Long
OpenKey = RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_CURRENT_USER, "Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System", 0, KEY_ALL_ACCESS, hKey)
SetValue = RegSetValueEx(hKey, "DisableTaskMgr", 0&, 4, CLng(KeyValueData), 4)
SetValue = RegCloseKey(hKey)
End Sub
Put two command buttons one to enable and other to disable :
'....To disable
Private Sub cmddisable_Click()
Dim retval As Byte
Call SetKeyDataValue(DISABLE_TASKMGR)
retval = MsgBox("Task Manager is now Disabled.", vbInformation, "TASK MANAGER DISABLED !!! -Sanchit Karve")
End Sub
'....To Enable
Private Sub cmdenable_Click()
Dim retval As Byte
Call SetKeyDataValue(ENABLE_TASKMGR)
retval = MsgBox("Task Manager is now Enabled.", vbInformation, "TASK MANAGER ENABLED !!! -Sanchit Karve")
End Sub
This should work perfectly !!!
