As for WinXP, the path "C:\Windows\Profiles\[profile name]\Application
Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\..." should read
%userprofile%\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch

Well, if the referred MSKB article applies, see the cause (excerpt):

| This behavior can occur if the Quick Launch folder has been deleted.

You cannot re-create that folder via REG file. However, you can create
that folder via script - provided that this MSKB article applies.

"MSKB article" stands for "Microsoft Knowledgebase article".

Try here:

Good luck.

Who removed the folder? It is there by XP default. Either way:

For a stand alone exe to be run as a startup script, send me a private
email. When this utility is run as a "Startup script", it will
automatically adjust the system Registry to "turn on" the Quick Launch bar,
by default,for all newly created user accounts.
