Solved Task Mgr window has no tabs

[cmmtch]

Yesterday I looked at task manager and it now has no tabs or even a menu bar. I need help restoring it to how it used to look with tabs and the menu bar. I've included a screen shot below.

First time I have heard of this kind of problem. I would start with sfc /scannow in cmd. prompt/admin. It will run it and chech Windows 7 System Files and repair them if it can. Run it 3 times with a boot after each time. This can't hurt but might help.

Hello cmmtch,

No worries. You just have Task Manager in small footprint mode. You can double click near a border as show in the tutorial below to switch back to normal mode.

Task Manager - Small Footprint Mode - Vista Forums

Hope this helps,

Double click in the border where the arrow points.




Damn. Shawn's beaten me to it again.

Small footprint Mode

Thanks to everybody that replied. It was in small footprint mode and a simple double click fixed the problem.

Next question is how in the heck did get it in small footprint mode? I don't remember doing anything but obviously I did something. :huh:

edit: As Emily Latella would say "Never mind" checked the link and I must have double clicked to cause it, thanks again.

You're welcome. I'm glad that we could help.

You may have just double clicked on a border area by mistake.
