Otherwise, something you installed did something.

Try these tips:


Favorites Missing and/or
Change the Location for Favorites

Go to this Registry key and check the path for the value "Favorties":

Windows XP:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders]
"Favorites"="C:\Documents and Settings\{username}\Favorites"

Windows Vista:
In the Start Menu's Search box, or in the Run command, enter: shell:Favorites
The folder should be recreated, if not immediately then after a restart.


Favorites Menu is Missing or Greyed Out

Go to these Registry keys and, if found, delete the value "NoFavorites"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\Internet Explorer]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\Internet Explorer]

My favorites also disappeared, along with all navigation buttons. I have been
using IE for years, and have no idea what happened.
