Task Manager Exit Button?

mcmuffin222 · 05-24-2008, 01:40 PM

Ok... I use my task manager occasionally (not very often) but i noticed that the close button on the top right corner was gone. I had to find the icon on the bottom of my screen, right click on it, and press close. Now i know that isn't that hard, but i was just curious what happened to it. Was it a vista update?

I just tested mine (Vista Ultimate 32 sp1) and the x close button is there.

Maybe you need to double click on the middle of the task manager.

Actually double click in the border. It is in Tiny Footprint Mode. See this article.
