How do I get the tool bar back in Windows Explorer

Standard Toolbar is gone. Everything is done from the Command bar now (and
menu bar). There's no Up because you can just click the parent folder name
in the Address bar.

When I click on My Computer and folders, on previous versions of Windows
there was a tool bar on top. On XP it was View, Toolbars, Standard Buttons
to get it to show if it wasn't showing.

You could change the buttons around by clicking on View, Toolbars,
Customize.

The toolbar button I used the most was "Up." Also Cut, Copy, Paste, Back,
Refresh, Map Drive.

Vista doesn't seem to have Toolbars off of the "View" menu. I am not seeing
a way to get the standard button toolbar to display.

I need to have the toolbar with the standard buttons, I use it a LOT. I
can't keep using Vista if it takes this functionality away.

This one I don't have an answer for, it's gone, Microsoft decided to
change it to "make it better."

Great huh.

That is 100% unacceptable.

Microsoft gave me the functionality of the toolbar for years, then takes it
away. How is that fair?

I use it a LOT. A *WHOLE* LOT.

I have spent hours looking around in Vista and testing things out, I don't
see any benefit or anything better about Vista.

XP is going back on via Acronis backup image.

And don't let the door hit you on the way out.

I'm simply using the browser Maxthon (www.maxthon.com), which is built on
the core of IE, so it's compatible.
It's A LOT better than IE7, which is pure BS in my opinion.
