Seems like the normal function of the "CTRL ALT DELETE" key stroke has

changed. Before when they are used it brought up a screen with three tabs.

Now it only brings up one screen. Its the END PROCESS screen listing all

proceses running with the % used by each program. The top tab with the simple

list of open programs and the third tab are gone. Can anyone explain what

happened?

That sounds like the old function of ctrl+alt+del that was in older version

of Windows.

 

Is this OS upgraded from an older version by chance?

Bill, just double click on the border of that Task Mmanager to bring it back

to normal mode. You have it in diminished mode.

You're talking about the Task Manager? No, it hasn't changed.

You're running in what's called "Small Footprint Mode." To change back

and forth from this mode to regular mode, just double-click on the

border.
