Windows 10: Firewall and Task Manager disabled

hello everyone ,
im not sure what the hell happened to my PC
but when i started it 2 hours ago i noticed the Task manager from the task bar menu is greyed out ,,,it said "task manager disabled by the administrator"
i searched for this abit and a quick reg edit fixed it but when i rebooted it was broken again...
also my firewall is disabled and it says "windows cant change some of your settings " code : 0x80070422
the firewall service is also disabled and i cant start it nor change any properties
also after a reg edit suggestion from another website ,,it managed to get it to running automatically , but when i click start it says windows cant start firewall on local computer error 1058
....other suggestions of some other reg edits failed ,,it gave me errors that i dont have permission to change them and all that stuff even tho im the admin and i changed the things mentioned above ...
i think some thing took control over these services and disabled them ?
i ran an antivirus check by mcafee and microsoft safety scanner nothing turned up even tho i still think this is a virus...
i also ran SCANNOW nothing turned up ......
HELP ME PLZ!

:)

 

Credentials for Task Manager

Task manager in Windows 10 is not the same thing as Task manager for Windows 7 & earlier.

• You can, for example, alter Startup items that you used to use MSConfig for in earlier Windows versions.

• If you are logged in to an Admin user account, Task manager in Windows 10 always challenges for Admin permission when it starts.
  
• If you are logged in to a Standard user account, Task manager in Windows 10 will open without any Admin challenge.

• If you are logged in to an Admin user account, Task manager in Windows 10 will allow you to alter entries in the Start-up tab such as disabling an item.
  
• If you are logged in to a Standard user account, Task manager in Windows 10 will only allow you to alter entries in the Start-up tab that affect that user account only. If you try to alter an item that affects other users, the disable command is greyed
  out.

Network tab in Task manager is not working

Hi,

The possible cause could be the Update speed option in Task Manager is Disabled. We suggest you to follow the steps below and check if the issue persists:

1. Open Task Manager.

2. Under the View option, go to Update Speed.

3. Ensure that it is not paused. You can set it to Normal.

4. Restart the computer.

5. Check if the issue persists.

Let us know how it goes.

 

Windows 10 - cannot add exec to Startup in Task Manager

I purchased a new computer with Windows 10 already installed. I am trying to add an exec to the startup list but Win10 will not accept it. The exec runs successfully on my Windows 10 machine if I start it manually.

Steps I've taken: Task Manager, Startup Tab, File>Run New Task. (browse to location, select.) It will start immediately, but does not show up on the list to autostart, nor does it start on reboot.

Any suggestions?
