Task Manager Disabled by Administrator

I'm getting a message "Task Manager Disabled by Administrator."
 
I AM the Administrator, and I did no such thing. How to I turn it  back on?
 
This is a new Inspiron, only a month old, and I am the ONLY user -- there's only one listed on the system -- me, as Administrator.
 
Appreciate feedback/help. Thank you.

Denny,
 
Thank you SO much. I used "option 2" -- ran the fix patch, did a reboot, and now I can access Task Manager. I have NO idea HOW it was "switched off" -- and haven't used it for almost a week, so I don't even know WHEN it happened.
 
I'm not new to PCs or Dell, but this is a new laptop, barely just a month old. I can trouble-shoot a lot of things, and do a lot of preventative maintenance, etc., but this was a new one for me.
 
I really appreciate the help -- I wasn't looking forward to dealing with customer support by phone (and being charged for it!).
 
Thanks again,
Robin Rolt
