Windows Server 2008 Task Manager: Unable to Perform (Access Denied) "Disconnect", "Log Off", "Remote Control", or "Send Message" on Users

Practice



If in the Windows Server 2008 Task Manager you are unable to perform one of the actions on a user - the system displays "Access Denied" or "No Access":

- Disconnect
- Log Off
- Remote Control
- Send Message

do the following: open the "Processes" tab and click the button at the bottom labeled "Show processes from all users", answer yes to the question "Are you an admin?" - and after that the specified actions will become available to you.

This is related to UAC - Task Manager opens under your account by default, not under the local administrator account, and therefore you cannot (do not have the rights to) perform the specified actions.
