How To Add Task Manager Option in Taskbar Context Menu [Solution]

In this tutorial, we'll explore how you can add the Task Manager option in the Taskbar context menu. The Task Manager is among the most important components of a Windows PC. There are multiple ways by which you can access the Task Manager on your computer. But among them all, the most convenient way is to right-click on the Taskbar and choose Task Manager from the context menu.

The taskbar in Windows 11 no longer includes the legacy code used in previous OS versions, so its doesn't include several of its traditional options. You cannot ungroup apps or enable text labels for them. But Microsoft is slowly restoring the missing features, as it happened to the Task Manager menu item.

Enable Task Manager Using the Registry Editor:
1. Launch the Run dialog box, type regedit in the search bar, and press Enter.
2. Click Yes to the UAC that crops up.
3. In the Registry Editor, head towards the following location.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FeatureManagement\Overrides\4
4. Right-click on the 4 subkey, choose New, and then select Key from the context menu.
5. Set the name of the key as 1887869580 and press Enter.
6. Right-click on the newly created key, 1887869580, and choose New / DWORD (32-bit) Value.
7. Set the name of the value EnableState.
8. Right-click on EnableState and select Modify.
9. Change the Value data to 2 and click OK.
10. Now, right-click on the 1887869580 key again and select New / DWORD (32-bit) Value.
11. Name the value as EnabledStateOptions and press Enter.
12. Right-click on EnabledStateOptions and select Modify from the context menu.
13. In the Value data section, type 0 and click OK. Now, restart your computer for the changes to take effect.
