Quick launch - unchecks on system startup

The show Quick Launch" setting unchecks itself each time on system startup. When I select it and save it reappears, but then next time I reboot, no quick launch show and start menu taskbar "show quick launch" is again unchecked. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated thanks

Hello duncan,

try this: before selecting the QL, unlock the Tool Bar by clicking on that line. And don't lock the Tool Bar, no need.

If charlesvar's suggestion doesn't work, try the fix on Kelly's Korner, line 30.

Click on "Windows XP Doesn't Save User Settings" to download a small .reg file and run it according to the directions at the top of the Kelly's Korner page.

 

Quick launch
