Task Manager

It brings up a screen giving various choices. The last choice is start task manager. Thats what happens on my computer.

If you feel it is not working, you can try in a Administrator account, type cmd in search. In CMD, type sfc /scannow. See it that helps.

He means selecting the manager from the ctrl alt del screen.
Try opening the command prompt as the administrator and typing in :

sfc /scannow

It sounds like something may have gotten mixed up in the Windows settings, and this command will scan and try to repair corrupted files.

Haha you posted first!
That has been happening a lot to me recently

Happens to us all. Not a problem. The OP now knows that several members have the same solution.

When I do Alt-ctrl-delete, or click on the Task Manager Icon in the windows system 32 file, in Win 7 it brings up somthing else.

How do i correct this? It used to work.

Thanks!!

Hello Bob, and welcome to Seven Forums.

Not sure if this is what you mean, but you press CTRL + SHIFT + ESCAPE, or right click on taskbar and click on Task Manager, to open Task Mananger now in Windows 7.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

What does it bring up? As Shawn has stated, the keyboard shortcut is Ctrl + Shift + Esc.

I think the OP is new to 7, and skipped Vista entirely, so he is expecting the system to work like XP... where alt-ctrl-del went directly to task Manager.

But he opened task manager by the system32 file as well, and came up with something different
