When your application running, create one separate thread which will continiously checking for process "Taskmgr.exe", if found then kill the process :-\ . :laugh: Why are you trying to do this ?

You could have your application shut the computer down. Only downside with that is none of the keys will do anything after that :doh: Of course, that's not a serious solution, but it's about as serious as I see your requirements. What valid reason would you have to disable the functions you have asked for?

In your registry at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\ System set DisableTaskMgr value to 1 first you have to create a key in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\ named: "System" with a subkey(REG_DWORD) named "DisableTaskMgr" with value set to 1

Will the user want you to do that? Would you want someone to write an application that does that to your computer?

In your registry at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\ System set DisableTaskMgr value to 1 first you have to create a key in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\ named: "System" with a subkey(REG_DWORD) named "DisableTaskMgr" with value set to 1
This value will be overwritten when policies refresh. It's not a permanent solution to the problem.

So, you're basically thinking of writing a virus, that will require the .NET framework to be installed! Imagine an error your "virus" might show: "Badass.exe needs the .NET framework 3.0 to be installed. Please install the .NET framework and try again." :doh: At least use the right tool for the right job.
