Hi, The question is for my son's laptop. Whenever i am having problems with some hanging, if i go to the task manager to kill the application exe in the tab, there is no application tab, and process tab is present and it shows all the process. It was easy to just kill the application exe , rather than the processes, which may be difficult to find. is there any fix, to restore the default task bar menu in windows xp sp3. i had all updates so far

I've found a couple of articles on this which may resolve.
https://www.raymond.cc/blog/fix-windows-task-manager-with-missing-tabs-and-menu/
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/310353/how-to-configure-windows-xp-to-start-in-a-clean-boot-state
While I would be willing to download that reset file in the first article after creating a restore point, I wouldn't use any 3rd party programs as the article goes on to suggest.
However, it may be that all you need to do is to follow the steps in the MS article.
