Why are my Task Manager Performance tab mini-graphs dots?

In this question, you can see the Task Manager showing mini-graphs for all the metrics on the left (ignore the right arrow; that's germane to the question at the above URL).

Occasionally, Task Manager only shows me dots.

How do I get the mini-graphs back?

            The content of your screenshots depict the effects of two different settings.



            The first screenshot depicts the act of right-clicking on the graph pane and choosing Change graph to -> Logical processors. As the name suggests, this shows an individual graph for each logical processor, of which you appear to have 16.



            Viewing logical processors in Task



            The second screenshot depicts the act of right-clicking on the Summary pane and choosing Hide graphs.



            enter image description here



            So, technically, the "solution" in your case is to right-click on the summary pane and choose Show graphs, and right-click on the graph pane and choose Change graph to -> Overall utilization.



            While I realize that this answer is very similar to the Accepted Answer, this one explains the distinction between the "dot view" on the left pane and the multiple mini-graphs in the right pane. They are two different settings, which is not necessarily clear from the Accepted Answer.
