audio transients in Premiere Elements?

Thanks, PB (BP?).  According to the video, one has to be in the Expert view on PE. However, I'm always on the Expert View. Though, in the video explaining this, it said the  "Advance View Timeline." Interesting that on my last project, which had about 17 tracks all together, I don't see any audio  transients. However, on a test video I just made, which only has 1 video and the associated audio track, I DO see audio transients very clearly.  Whether I zoom in or not, they are not there for the previous bigger video, but they are there on this newer test video with only 1 short track. Don't understand why, but I will see what happens if I continue to add some other tracks.

But yet another problem with Adobe has surfaced for me. WHen I am finished with a particular project for the day, I know I can just keep it opened and, ie, minimized if I want to do something else on the computer. But, I can't seem to find a  way to just shut the project, and stay in that view. My point is, if I do just hit the "exit" choice (rather than my seeing an option to just "exit current project," I am taken to the original screen that appears when i click on the Adobe PE icon from my home screen. But, when I do that, if I hit the new icon on this 1st screen to open PE, as opposed to the other icon which would open Photoshop, I can't get anything to open. Even if I exit out of the preliminary screen all  together and then hit the Adobe PE icon from my home screen again, I do get to this preliminary screen. But I still cannot open PE. The only way I can do this is to reboot my computer. Which means having to do a lot of other time consuming things. Have you heard of that and do you know of a fix?

Thanks for your time.
