Task Pane Missing

[Guest]

I've read a few threads on here where the common task pane went mysteriously
missing. I've tried going through the folder options and selecting "Show
common tasks in folders". This option is already selected and still does not
bring up the common tasks pane. Can anyone help me figure out how to bring
the tasks pane back? Thank you!

So what does Windows Explorer look like? Is there already a left-side
panel displayed showing the folder tree, favorites, history, or
whatever? If you selected to view something in the Explorer bar then
that is what gets displayed. The tasks panel only displays if NOTHING
is selected to display in that panel. Under View -> Explorer Bar, make
sure none are selected. Or you could click the "X" button at the top
right of that panel to close it.
