Vista, command prompt

[runLoganrun]

In Vista I can't open command prompt, it says that it is disabled by administrator. I am the administrator, and didn't disable it, I don't know how. How can I enable this to work?

thanks,

were you messing around with group policy? you could try running gpedit.msc and under user config > admin templates >system i believe that is where the disable command prompt is located.

Regedit

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System

Set DisableCMD to 0

Go figure, regedit is disabled too. I got it off the internet so it's probably just fuc$ed anyway, have to grab my own copy....

have you tried right clicking it and click on run as administrator?

yeah, it still doesn't work; it's weird though, that regedit is the same way.

A good sign of malware is when cmd and regedit gets disabled by unknown reasons
