PLEASE HELP. I was using the task manager on my PC and somehow clicked on
some place on the Task Manager window and now all that appears when I open
the Task Manager is a window of the current processes in use The Tabs which
are normally a part of the Task Manager window are simply NOT THERE.
How can I get the Task Manager standard window WITH all its tabs back. I
have tried everything even running a cd boot up repair. Nothing seems to help
and I really don't want to re-load the OS as I have about 30 gigabyte of info
on the hard drive. I trust someone will be able to help me. Many thanks in
anticipation of someone's help in this matter. Regards Graham.

Don't know how to solve your problem but I strongly recommend that you
back up your "info".

Double-click any blank area of the Task Manager and all its tabs should come
back.

Just doubleclick the edge.
