I am not sure how or why, but I seem to have lost the taskbar and tabs from my task manager...?

Any help appreciated.

Hi,


Try double-clicking anywhere on the border of the task manager pane.

Of course I already knew that - how? - a forum search would have revealed THIS

you aint the only one to have done that Ady, first time it happened to me was quite scary and i'm sure there have been other people on here that have done it

I used to have an open mind but my brains kept falling out

One more step to enlightenment ... but which way ?

True - I guess the underlying message is try a forum search first and the question may already have been asked
