Favorites Drop Down Menu Quetion

[Guest Dave]

Is there a way to get the Favorites drop down menu to display immediately

when clicked rather than having to click on the chevron symbols at the

bottom?

 

Thx

Dave.

IE Tools | Internet Options | Advanced | Browsing | Enable personalized

Favorites (uncheck).

Thanks Pa - that was it -

One can't leave this without the observation that the expression "Enable

Personalized Favorites Menu" obviously has absolutely nothing to do with

the LENGTH of a menu list.

 

MS is full of people with many skills I'm sure. Unfortunately, the English

language is not one of them.

 

Thank you for your patience

 

Dave

You're welcome.

I dunno what you thought "Enable personalized favorites menu" might do but

what you were seeing is what it does: Bookmarks for less-frequently visited

webpages are not displayed at first when you open Favorites from the Menu

Bar. If you wait long enough or click on the downward-pointing chevrons,

all bookmarks will display. It's been like this for quite some time, Dave.

You wanna try navigating around Vista ! ...hideous platform ...inasmuch

that everything seems to have been moved, or you have to go through about 6

hoops to create you own shortcut for basic thing, ...and security settings

are wound up as high as they'll go !

I've had to help a few people people with Vista based machines, ...and what

a major fight to drop a new mvps.org hosts file into the etc directory -

i.e. what on earth is all this crap about permissions ? ! # ~!!!

As soon as I sit in front of one now - the procedure is select "Windows

Classic" theme | select "Classic" Start Menu,

....then things are slightly less awful. :-)

 

regards, Richard
