Task Manager

[Needy]

When I CTRL+Alt+Delete, my Task Manager pops up. It used
to be, when I did this I had a number of tabs to chose
from (3 or 4, can't remember. Didn't use it that much.)
But now, whenever I try it, the only thing I get is the
Processes section (The part that lets you cancle
processes directly) and I can't shift through tabs
because.. their gone! Where they used to be, is my
desktop. The window got smaller. I may have clicked
something I wasn't supposed to, an option perhaps, but I
can't get it back. Any ideas?

Are you logged on as a local Administrator? If not, you
may be restricted from seeing the other tabs? not sure...

Move the cursor to the edge of the TM dialog and double click.

Double click on the border at the top of Task Manager and
you should get your tab options back.

Greetings --

You're running Task Manager in "Small Footprint Mode." Simply
double-click anywhere along the top or side borders to return to a
normal view. Alternatively, pressing <Ctrl>+<Tab> will allow you to
cycle between the various displays, and <Alt>+<F4> will close it.
