Hi,
I am not sure if I am posting to the right group or not,
but any input on this would really help.

I have a WinNT 4 workstation that is patched with all of
the latest updates, patches and service packs.
At some point, my Windows Explorer lost some
functionality (In all profiles).
Currently, when I click on View there are some missing
options. Specifically, there is no extended menu for
Toolbars to allow me to choose Standard Buttons, Links,
Address bar, etc.
Has anyone seen this behavior before? Does anyone know of
a cure?

Thanks in advance,
Vlaad

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
I have to ask, though, wouldn't downgrading from IE 6 SP1
to IE 4 or 5 be a security risk on my network? My
understanding of IE is that it was generaly a security
risk and that was the main reason for many of the
upgrades.

Thanks again,
Vlaad

That's just to get active desktop installed. Then you can go back up to IE6
This may work from the "Run" box;

IE6Setup.exe /c:"ie6wzd /e:IE4Shell_NTx86 /I:Y"
