Quick Launch Bar

[Darlene]

I am running Windows XP Pro. Can any one tell me how to stop my quick launch
bar from disappearing. I have it with a check mark and every time I reboot
I lose it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Darlene, check at Kelly's http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_abc.htm
Select Q and scroll to Quick Launch not working properly.

1) Right click on task bar - click "Lock the TaskBar" to remove the
checkmark next to it.
2) Right click on task bar - click Toolbars, Quicklaunch to add a checkmark
next to it.
3) Right click on task bar - click "Lock the TaskBar" to add the checkmark
back next to it.
4) After rebooting, it should stay.

Thanks, Rich.

Added info (in case it hasn't been added there yet, will have to check).

Quick Launch: Gives error message, Cannot Create Toolbar

Either download the .reg or .vbs from here or run my utility listed below it
to correct.
Note: If you already have my utility downloaded, you will need to
re-download for the added fix.

Quick Launch: Won't remain checked/present nor retains the sort order

Either check your settings here:

Go to Start/Run/Regedit and navigate to this key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon.

In the right pane under Userinit, Change the key to read:
C:\Windows\System32\Userinit.exe,

Or download and run the reg file on line 263 (right hand side)

Tip:

To use the Regedit: Save the REG File to your hard disk. Double click it
and answer yes to the import prompt. REG files can be viewed in Notepad by
right clicking on the file and selecting Edit.

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.

Sorry Star Fleet and Kelly but nothing has worked. When I right click on
the taskbar and go to properties the check mark to show quick launch is
there. When I just right click on the task bar and go to tool bars the
check mark is not staying there for the quick launch. I keep losing it
after every reboot. I have tried what both of you have suggested and
nothing is helping. Anything else would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in
advance.
