Before a few days i used to get that picture when i started task manager and it showed all programs running. NOw i don't get that picture when i start task manager but only no choices. But only this



| User | ID | Status | Client Name | Session
zmth 1 Active Console




and that is it ! Never any different . Used to get the window you show. I wish there was a way to upload an image on this forum but there is NOT. Don't know how you all uploaded that picture of what your screen showed. Anyway it does NOT show "Windows Task Manager" at top . NO colums with "Applications ,Processes,Services,Performance...etc. That does NOT appear but only as i have shown above.
