Task Manager has no heading tabs

Hi - can anyone tell me why my Windows Task Manager has lost its top blue
bar, its File/Options/View/Help drop downs below and its
Apps/Processes/Perf/Networking tabs ? All I get is a box with open
applications in it and the only way I can close it is to right click on the
green icon in the task bar to get <close>. Thanks in advance, chrissyd.

It sounds as if you have Task Manager running in "Tiny
footprint mode". Double click the border to restore it to its original
appearance.

Why is part of my Task Manager gone?

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.
