Status Bar

Postby Bobtheduck » Thu Apr 01, 2004 1:34 am

Windows Xp has the status bar turned off in IE and in the shell by default... I'm always turning it on by hand. I really depend on the status bar. Is there any way to force it to always be on?

This might work:

In the shell, turn on the status bar
Now go to Tools>Folder Options
Click the "View" tab
Click the button that sez "Apply to All Folders"

Also, just to beat a dead horse a little more,

yeah. Firefox has a really cool option that lets you tell it NOT to allow websites to disable that status bar. I swear, one of the sites I have to use at work turns off the status bar on a SECURE site. OK, so... HOW DO I KNOW THAT IT'S SECURE IF I CAN'T SEE THE LITTLE KEY ICON?!?!?!


Oh... Sorry. Didn't mean to rant...

That's exactly what I was going to say, but since you beat me to it I'll just second that.
