More info?)
Right-click your c:\windows folder and choose Search
Put in "taskmgr" and select the "search hidden" and "search system" options
under
"more options"
See if the search turns up copies of "taskmgr.exe", in these 2 folders
C:\WINDOWS\system32\dllcache
C:\WINDOWS\system32
If not, then if the search locates taskmgr.exe in another folder, then try
copying it to those 2 folders
[Otherwise, if you can locate a copy of taskmgr.ex_ ,then copy it to c:
Then start > run> cmd
cd\
expand TASKMGR.EX_ taskmgr.exe
Then copy the newly expanded taskmgr.exe from c: to the 2 folders mentioned
previously ]
