Hi all.
Today I have found that my task manager have a problem, when I start it I
see only the window with the list of processes, but with no bordes it is
impossible to close the window and to change the window.
Is it possible to reinstall Task Manager ?

I have Win XP / PRO SP2 last update 11th july 2006

Thanks

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".

No, reinstalling is not necessary. Nothing is actually wrong. 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.

By the way, for future reference, you can close a program without clicking
on the "X." Just right click it on the task bar and choose "Close."
