Problem with Task Manager

[wmlbill]

Normally when you press Control, Alt, Delete to bring up
Task Manager, There are three tabs plus Cancel/Exit
buttons. When I press Control, Alt, Delete I am only
getting the inside task window so I can kill a task, but
can not look at processes, etc. Also can not close the
window as these buttons are not present either.

Has anyone else seen this?

How can this be corrected?

Open Task Manager and double-click anywhere on the top Window border.
Somehow, you managed to convert Task Manager to run in "Tiny Footprint Mode".

Doubleclick the border of Task Manager.
