How can I reset Windows Explorer (XP) to defaults? I'm missing the address bar and icons.

 

[RicHSAD]

Try Tools->Folder Options->View(tab)->Reset Folders.

 

[Rhinosaur]

View -> Toolbars -> Standard buttons/address bar ought to do the trick.

I remember that had hapepned to me a while abck and i found it though Rhinosaur's solution

have you recently updated to sp3?

Under View/Toolbars, I can turn Address Bar, and Standard Buttons, etc.. on or off, like Rhinosaur said.

Under View, I can choose Icons, List , or Details for the Folder Window

When I have the view the way I want it, I go to Tools/Folder Options/View, I select -Apply to All Folders- button.

Works for me in XP SP3 the same way as in SP2.

Nope been on SP3 for a while. It displays the default with the icons when I click on a shared network drive, but when I press windows and e it opens up like the one in the first post.

I'm not at home and my laptop has Vista, but try running gpedit.msc from the start/run menu and check the user configuration.
