Hi everyone,

this is a problem related to the quick launch toolbar.
once while working, my computer went into stand-by mode
on its own. when i logged in again then i found that i
was missing my quick launch toolbar. i had tried to
display it (quick launch toolbar) again in the
traditional way of right clicking on the task bar and
going to "properties" and checking the "quick launch
option". but for some reason it doesnot work that way. if
i take another route which is right clicking on the task
bar and then going to "toolbars" and then checking
the "quick launch" option, I get an error saying "Cannot
create toolbar".

I have done some research on the web and the most common
solution i have found is that of checking if i have a
quick launch folder at the following location:

"C:\Documents and Settings\Vibhor Gupta\Application
Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\"

i have checked this and have found that this folder is
there. i have even tried to delete this folder and create
a new one, but still i have not been able to get the
quick launch toolbar to be displayed again.

i would be very grateful to you if you could please
suggest me a way around this.
