[[New versions will not install, or will not install correctly, unless you
completely uninstall the earlier version first.]]

Go to Add or Remove Programs in the Control Panel and uninstall anything
listed as TweakUI. Then reboot. Then do a Search for TweakUI.exe on your
machine and delete any that you find. Do the same for tweakui.cpl.
tweakui.cpl is from an old version.

In ,
deepkent hunted and pecked:
Yes, the Registry tweak seems to have done it, Wes - thank you! I
couldn't use Tweak UI as you suggested, because I could find nothing
under IE that related to the problem. I then realised I did not have
the up-to-date version. So I downloaded the latest version of Tweak
UI, and unzipped it, but when I click on tweakui.inf, all I get is a
Notepad file beginning "; Author: Win95 Shell Team", not an installer.

I also tried clicking on tweakui.cpl, and received the message "Tweak
UI should be run from the Control Panel. Would you like to install it
now?" I chose Yes, and nothing happened. It's not in the Control
Panel. (By the way, nor was my earlier version.) Just as a side
issue, I'd be grateful if you can tell me what I'm doing wrong in
trying to install Tweak UI.

But thanks for the Recent Docs help - I'm very grateful.
