• Title bar on the Task Manager window is missing

  While working, I noticed that the title bar on the Task Manager is missing.  Unfortunately I don't remember what key shots that I did to make it disappear.

  I chose the Task Manager and press F11 but nothing happens.

  I passed using Windows and tried all search combinations I could think, but none of them gave an answer to the problem.

  What I've done and how to do this problem?

  Thank you

  Do you mean that the tabs are missing? Double-click on the outer border of the box of the Task Manager.

• How to retrieve the Task Manager window?

  I often used TM for different things, and then it was gone!  Now, when I hit Ctrl/alt/delete everything that happens is a grid to use green and black.  I tried various searches, but am still not able to access.  I'd appreciate any help - thanks

  What happens if you select:
  Start-> Run-> "taskmgr".
  ?

  There should be a "taskmgr.exe" file in the C:\windows\system32 folder.  If she is not there, try to make a copy of it from another machine to Windows XP, it by copying.

• Install flash does not do anything and should be used to close the Task Manager.

  For a few months now, I tried to update Flash Player, every time I tried I would get the installer to come and it displays black background there bar none download or any text. I thought that the problem could be something to do with the version of Flash installed on my computer already, then I uninstalled the thought if I just installed the latest version, there would be a problem. Now I'm stuck without Flash at all on my computer and the installer still does not. What is the solution to this?

  Please try the installation offline programs:

  Internet Explorer:

• Recently, my Task Manager window was more a bar, Minimize/Close. I have to restart my laptop to get rid of him.

  I have a HP Pavilion dv6-1030 Notebook PC running Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit. About 2 weeks ago, I noticed that when I go to the Task Manager window, it has more Ribbon to reduce/enlarge/close in the upper right corner of the window. The only way to eliminate the window is to restart my computer. I had several automatic updates that happened during this time from Microsoft (Windows updates) and HP (HP Advisor software). Anyone have any idea why this happened and how to fix it?

  Double-click on the top bar of the Task Manager and the will to "Reduce, restore upwards downwards, close" be restored.

  Don't forget to close all open window press Alt and F4 keys together.

• My Task Manager window has no title bar

  My Task Manager window has no title bar (it's usually blue) and nothing underneath, except for applications that run on the page. It gives me at least to go to any other page. I usually use Bill P Studios "WinPatrol" to close the Task Manager.

• The task manager has started to appear without borders and will not go away, unless the computer is off.

  When using the Ctrl-alt-delete option and the Manager tasks appears it seems without borders.  The task manager remains after the programs are all closed and will not go away, unless the computer is off.

  It's called mode 'small footprint '.  Double-click anywhere on the border of the Task Manager window and you will get the Menu bar in the rear.
