I have the exact same problem . . . have tried every suggested fix I could find online. If I right-click the task bar/properties . . . "Show Quick Launch" does not retain the check mark. If I right-click task bar/toolbars . . . I can select "address", "windows media player" and "links"; however selecting "desktop" and/or "quick launch" results in the error message "cannot create toolbar".

I have verified that my quick launch folder exists and my shortcuts are still displayed within this folder.

Help!!!
