I tried this suggestion yesterday, but still no web tab.


[previous thread]

Click Start, Run and enter REGEDIT Go to:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersio
n\Policies\Explore
r

Look in the right pane for values called NoActiveDesktop
and
NoActiveDesktopChanges. If found, they should be set to
0. If not, then
double click each entry and set it to 0. If they don't
exist, right click
in the right pane, select New, DWord value and name them
as above. Leave
them at 0.

Hi Neal,

That should have worked. Try this edit:

Restore the Web Tab - Display Properties (Line 177)
