Task manager displays without Minimize, Maximize, Close buttons??

“ Hi,

Using Vista Ultimate when I press Ctrl+Alt+Del and choose Start Task Manager
I get a screen without a title bar, or any buttons at the top. All that
displays is Task, Status and the running items. At the bottom of the window
End Task, Switch To and New Task are displayed. I can close the window with
Alt+F4, but I would prefer to have the old look back. Any suggestions?

TIA

That situation is startling the first time, but entirely normal. And easy
to do accidentally.

You've somehow entered the special mode whose name I can't recall (no, not

Manager. Double-click there again to get the usual display back again.
I've forgotten exactly where to double-click, but in the white area near
the bottom of the TM window is one good place.
