Hi, when I click on the 'Switch Between Windows" it is no longer 3-D but
instead a box. I really loved the 3-D look. I recently downloaded a new
updates for my comp that said it was really important. And since then, I
have a box that gives me a list of my porgrams. I was wondering if anybody
could help me get the program back in 3-D. Thanks

Are you sure Aero is turned on?
Something might have turned it off.

box, click Automatic > click OK > then click the Play button or click Start
