RDP Kill-Task Manager is not running under administrative privileges

It is possible that Task Manager is not running under administrative privileges. Following methods can resolve this issue:

------
Method 1:
------
1)... From a DOS prompt type "quser".
2)... This gives you a list of connected sessions with session IDs
3)... Identify the dodgy session ID and type 'logoff <SessionID>'.
                EG:C:\Windows\system32>logoff.exe 9
You can also check remote servers as well by doing:
quser /server:servername
Which gives you information about connected sessions for the specified server.
------
Method 2:
------
1.     Click Start, click All Programs, click Accessories, right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run as administrator.
2.     If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click Continue.
3.     At the command prompt, type taskmgr.exe, and then press ENTER.
(Task Manager starts with administrative privileges.)

 4.     Switch to the Users tab and log off a user account.
