Favorites Bar Is Missing

If the Favorites bar is missing from the toolbar, it may have been disabled, or the System Folder:Preferences:Explorer:Favorites.html file may have been moved, renamed, deleted, or damaged.

To add the Favorites bar to the toolbar, use either of the following methods:

• If the Favorites bar has been disabled, click Preferences on the Edit menu, click the Show Favorites Bar check box to select it, and then click OK.
• If the Favorites.html file has been moved, you can search for it by clicking Find File on the Apple menu, typing Favorites.html, and then clicking Find. If the Favorites.html file is on your hard disk, move it to the System Folder:Preferences:Explorer folder, then quit and restart Internet Explorer.
• If the Favorites.html file has been renamed, rename the file back to Favorites.html.
• If the Favorites.html file has been deleted or damaged, reinstall Internet Explorer.
