JSI Tip 9930. The Windows XP Quick Launch, Desktop, and toolbar creation process reports 'Cannot create Toolbar'?

When you attempt to create a new toolbar, or enable the Quick Launch or the Desktop toolbars, you receive:

Cannot create Toolbar.

These problems may be due to a corrupted registry entry, Dynamic Link Library, or a missing Quick Launch folder.

I have scripted TB.BAT to resolve the problem.

The syntax for using TB.BAT is:

1. Run TB.BAT. 2. Shutdown and restart Windows XP.

TB.BAT contains:

@echo off
@echo.Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00>"%TEMP%\TB.TMP"
@echo.>>"%TEMP%\TB.TMP"
@echo.\[-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\\{D82BE2B0-5764-11D0-A96E-00C04FD705A2\}\]>>"%TEMP%\TB.TMP"
