I accidentially deleted quicklaunch file and now when I
try to add anything it errors to TOOLBAR, CANNOT CREATE
TOOLBAR. I tried this
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-
us;190355 but it refers to if the toolbar already exists
not if its completely gone. I know its a simple scr file
or little file that makes it work. Any way to extrapulate
it specificially from the CD or is there a way to manually
put in in to avoid loading windows back in to fix it?

Thanks

Hi djmones,

Open My Computer or Windows Explorer and go to Tools>Folder Options>View tab
and ensure that "Show hidden files and folders" is selected. Now, navigate
to:
C:\Documents and Settings\<UserName>\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer

If there is no Quick Launch folder there, create a new folder and name it
Quick Launch.


Regards,

Maybe it's available but just not being shown. Right click an empty area of
your Taskbar, choose Toolbars from the pop up menu and make sure there is a
checkmark before Quick Launch.

In addition:

This happens if the QuickLaunch folder is deleted accidentally, and/or =
the "Application Data" registry path is incorrect. Visit =
www.dougknox.com, click 'Windows XP Fixes' and look for the fix "Cannot =
Create Toolbar For..... error message". Download the VBScript and =
double-click it. Restart and now, try to enable Quick Launch bar.

Or, download Taskbar Repair Plus! util from here:
