lost menu

[veronica]

I have lost the blue menu on the left side of the screen
when you access the control panel, my pic's, my music,
etc. There is nowhere to change to "view as a webpage",
either in the View tab, or the Start properties. Help!

From Kelly's Korner. (The Start menu and Taskbar are considered as a unit.)

To use the VBS Files: Download .vbs file and save it to your hard drive (you
may want to right click and use Save Target As). Double click the vbs
file. You will be prompted when the script is done.

NOTE: If your anti-virus software warns you of a "malicious" script, this
is normal if you have "Script Safe" or similar technology enabled. These
scripts are not malicious, but they do make changes to the System Registry.

Hi Veronica,

That is called Common Tasks. Check your settings here: Windows
Explorer/Tools/Folder Options/Show Common Tasks in Folders.

If this doesn't solve the issue, run the edit on lines 145 and 78:
