I am having trouble opening the task manager in windows XP. I have had my e-machine for about 2 years and use task manager regularly; program is invoked by hitting ctrl+alt+del. Now when I try to use it the icon appears in the task bar but the task listing does not show on the main screen. By right clicking on the icon I can choose from "always on top" or "close." How do I get back to normal function. It's driving me nuts! Any ideas appreciated.

When you open Task Manager, you can also use Ctrl+Shift+Esc, under Options, is Always On Top ticked?

fredbrown444, If your Task Manager appears on the screen but is blank with no tabs follow the instructions at the link below.

The top-level menus and tabs in Task Manager are missing?

If your Task Manager doesn't appear on your screen at all it's possibly virus related. Check out the link below.

Why does Task Manager disappear while opening?
