    What registry key or file holds the info on what toolbars are shown and which aren't?  I have a user that must have had a registry hack or GPO applied at some point, because when right clicking across the task bar at the bottom, he doesn't have the ToolBars option to re-enable his quick launch toolbar.  Is that stored in a reg key or file somewhere?  is there a GPO setting also?

    I'm trying to avoid deleting his profile and recreating it to fix this.

    Hi,

    If the Taskbar repair tool cannot solve the problem, please try to collect the following information for research:

    1.    Run "gpresult /v >>c:\gp.txt" on XP client, please use Windows Live SkyDrive (http://www.skydrive.live.com/) to upload the file and then give me the download address.
    2.    On DC, open GPMC, right-click Group Policy Result, choose Group Policy Result Wizard, follow the wizard to collect a report of the Windows 7 system. When it finish, right-click in the right-panel, choose Save Report, and use Windows Live SkyDrive (http://www.skydrive.live.com/) to upload the file and then give us the download address. 

    Thanks.
