Hi Al,
Thank you for posting!
Regarding this problem, here are some questions:
1. When you launch Task Manager, does it appear as a Taskbar item?
2. If you double click the System Tray icon, does Windows Task Manager (the
window) appear?
3. If you minimize this window, what happens?
4. Please launch Task Manager (the window) again. Click Options. Is the
"Hide when Minimized" option selected? If so, please click to uncheck it.
5. Close Task Manager and launch it again. Does it appear as a window, or a
task bar item, or the system tray only?
Hope this helps. Thank you!
Regards,
Bennie Chen
