My Quick Launch Bar settings are somehow corrupted when I exit WinXP. I have
7 icons in the Quick Launch Bar, placed in a certain order. Sometimes (NOT
always!) after rebooting or shutting down - restarting the PC, I find the
Quick Launch Bar reduced to the default size (to fit 5 icons only) and the
order of the icons is the one in which the corresponding programs have been
installed (not the one I previously set).
I had this problem with WinXP SP1 too, but my sysem got "healed" after I
installed SP2. I couldn't spot the program after whose installation the
problem re-occured. I do think my settings are messed with when I exit
WinXP, as some time ago, under SP1, I used to hear an alert sound like the
one when an error occures while the system was saving whatever it saves
after Start-TurnOffComputer-TurnOff/Restart. No error message was displayed,
no error event was logged. Each time I heard this sound I knew the Quick
Launch Bar will have to be set again after restarting the computer. The
audible alert mentioned does NOT appear any longer, but still the Quick
Launch Bar is corrupted from time to time.
As this is a pretty annoying problem, any advice about solving it would be
greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance!
