    Alt Tab Problem

    I have a problem with task manager, in that the tabs at the top are missing. I think this happened after playing a game that crashed, ie I Alt-Tab-Deleted during the game a few times + pressed some oher keys and then turned off the main switch when nothing happened.
    Since then, I cannt tab between the processes/applications/memory usage, etc. Did I minimise something by mistake - anyone know the keyboard shortcut to undo it? Or could it be something else?
    By the way, when I log on with another account, there is no problem!

    Ideas?

    On the right hand pane, find "coolswitch"
    Right click coolswitch, click modify and in value data, type

    Try Doubleclicking the edge of the taskmanager window.
