Quick Launch Problem

[Cameron]

I no longer can view my quick launch bar on the task bar.
I have tried to go into the start menu properties and
checked "Show Quick Launch" and it does nothing. If I
right click the task bar and go to toolbars and then Quick
launch, I get an error message reading "Cannot Create
Toolbar". As much as this is not a fatal error or
anything, I have found it very difficult to live without
my precious quick launch bar and any suggestions would be
welcomed. I am hoping that I don't have to reinstal
windows just to get my quick launch back...that's just not
right

Try this:

Click on START --> RUN.

Type
REGSVR32 /i SHELL32.DLL, then enter

REGSVR32 /i BROWSEUI.DLL

Restart Windows and enable the bar

Hi Cameron,

Common issue as of late:

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.
