hi, seems i was the one that clicked it off, but during few windows jumping
around / during few java - lo mem.. but I lost the header / title bars to my
Task Manager.

it is stuck on processes tab, just grey border. no blue title bar, nor
menu's.. is there a shortcut key that re-enables the headers? or how do I
reset Task Manager.
Thanks!

It's running in "Tiny Footprint" mode, double click on the border to
bring it back to its normal mode.

Double-click in the bottom margin, in the space below the list of
processes, between the checkbox for "Show processes ..." and the "End
Process" button.

The place you need to double click varies from tab to tab.

You're welcome. I don't know about IE windows, maybe someone else knows
about it and it might depend on the IE version that you are using.

thanks, I'll post question in IE as well, but familiar with F11's use in
that it maximizes screen (unless some aspect I'm missing). what wanted is
smaller size video window (with stay on top feature i have) will allow me to
work on window behind it while viewing video's. thanks
