XP Home - Some how the other tabs in task manager
disappeared, all I get is the process tab in a window all
by itself. I am loged in as administrator, I think the
other tabs were there when I loaded the OS but can't swear
to it. Thanks for any help.
 
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".

Thanks, I found out how it happeded, if you double-click
anywhere in the processes tab border it will change to the
tiny footprint. I was trying to right click for a menu and
it doesn't work that way.
 
There is some programmer in Redmond just laughing their butt off at this goofy option. Instead of
"Tiny Footprint Mode" it should be called "Let's Really Confuse the User".

Thanks all. I got hit by a pest too and this got rid of my tabs. By
clicking where the tabs were, this brought them back.
