Problem with the Ctrl-Alt-Del window.

Frank Martin

I have WindowsXP.
When I press the key combination Ctrl-Alt-Del
I get the usual process-running list in a
window, but lately all its tabs have
disappeared.

I need this to tell me if a program is "not
responding".

How can I fix this. Please help.

This will happen if you accidentally double click the line between the Task
Manager's main window and its title bar above. To switch it back to the
normal display, double-click the top border of the window.

Hi Frank,

Sounds like your Task Manager is in what is called "Tiny Footprint" mode.
Double-click anywhere in the outer border area of the window and then the
tabs will return.

You're running in what's called "Small Footprint Mode." To change back
and forth from this mode to regular mode, just double-click on the
border.
