Article ID: 555525 - Last Review: November 21, 2005 - Revision: 1.0 Cannot create toolbar in Windows XPSUMMARYWhen you try to enable the Quick Launch or the Desktop bar, or try to create a new toolbar, you may get the error "Cannot create Toolbar". SYMPTOMSAlso, the solution recommended in the following MS KBase article may not resolve the issue: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;240133 CAUSEThis issue may be due to one of the following reasons: - Quick Launch folder is missing. - Corrupted DLL files. - Corrupted registry entries. RESOLUTIONThis issue might happen if the Quick Launch folder is missing from this location: %Appdata%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch To resolve the issue, you need to execute the following command at the Run dialog box: IE4UINIT.EXE The above command creates the Quick Launch folder automatically. If the issue still persists, re-register the following two files (Simply execute the commands one after the other at run dialog box): REGSVR32 /i SHELL32.DLL REGSVR32 /i BROWSEUI.DLL Restart Windows and enable the Quick Launch Toolbar. Alternatively, you can edit the following registry key: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{D82BE2B0-5764-11D0-A96E-00C04FD705A2} Create a new String value Value data = "IShellFolderBand" In the same key, click + sign and "InProcServer32" Create a new Expandable string value. (Right-click on the registry windows, choose New to get the option) Value data = "%SystemRoot%\system32\SHELL32.dll" Create a String value: Name - "ThreadingModel" Value - "Apartment" NOTE: Don't use quotes anywhere while creating the strings in the registry.
