1. Click on the Start button and type Regedit. Open the Registry Editor.

enable the Task Manager shortcut in the Taskbar context menu

 

2. Paste this in the tool's address bar, and press Enter.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FeatureManagement\Overrides\4

enable the Task Manager shortcut - step 2

 

3. You will need to create a new key under the folder named 4. Right-click on 4 in the left pane, and select New > Key. Name it as  1887869580

enable the Task Manager shortcut - step 2a

 

4. Select the new folder, switch to the right pane.

enable the Task Manager shortcut - step 3

 

5.  Right-click inside the pane and select Create. Choose a new DWORD and name it as EnabledState. Double-click on it and change its value from 0 to 2.

enable the Task Manager shortcut - final step

6. Create another DWORD, this time name it as EnabledStateOptions. You don't have to change its value.

7. This feature is also slowly rolling out to users. So, those who didn’t get this feature can enable it with this command:

  ViVeTool.exe /enable /id:36860984

Reboot the computer. Try right-clicking on the Taskbar, and you should see the shortcut for the Task Manager in the context menu.
