Task manager is disabled

Hi,

Recently I discovered, when I open my lock screen with ctrl + alt + del the task manager is missing from the bottom.
I tried to run the exe but it says that I need admin rights, I checked and I'm the admin on my PC.
I also edited the Local Group Policy:

User Configuration -> Asministrative Templates -> System -> ctrl + alt + del options

Remove Task Manager said it was already Disabled, I changed it to Not Configured then back to Disabled and it solved the issue until next restart.

Could anybody suggest some decent solution instead of me writing a janky task instead?

    Hi

    Welcome to Microsoft community.

    I'm glad to help you.

    Do you have other antivirus management software installed on your computer? If they exist, you can temporarily uninstall them and check whether the problem disappears.

    At the same time, create a new local administrator account and check whether the same problem exists. Check whether it is caused by account problems.

    If anything is unclear, please do not hesitate to let me know.

    Best regards
