    I turned on my m15x this morning and something weird happened, I can't run task manager! :eek:
    when I right-click my taskbar, "start task manager" option is already in grey font color (I believe that's mean it has been disabled)
    I tried ctrl+alt+delete and "start task manaer" option is not even exist! :confused:
    I click my start button and fill "task manager" on run field, I saw "view running processes with task manager" but when I click it something popped out said "Task Manager has been disabled by your administrator"

    I don't have any single idea of what the hell was happen but surely I need that Task Manager, and I desperately need help now :eek:

    A symptom of a virus infection. Time to get Malwarebytes and run it.

    Oh come on, are you really going to ask a question like that rather than pulling up Google and looking yourself? Next you'll be asking if I'll come to your house and fix it for you. :eek:
