Did your sidebar disappears when you install the latest version of Internet Explorer IE8 on vista machine
Windows Vista have now become popular and is installed in most new PCs and Laptops. But this OS from microsoft is not still in stable condition. It takes time to rectify most of the problems and fix these loopholes. But it would become most popular Operating system in the future and i hope so.
Vista users have discovered the latest problem after installing the latest version of Internet Explorer and i too have faced the problem when IE8 is installed on my Dell Notebook. The problem is what you see in the title “Sidebar in vista disappeared on the next start of my Notebook”. I did one thing which is simple but it is not effective solution for solving this problem. I have restored to the systems earlier state which might be a simple solution but you will loose the usage of Internet explorer 8.
The latest solution for this problem is discovered and is an effective method to fix this loop hole. The problem occurs because of missing XML registration in the system.
This problem can be fixed by following the below steps :
+ Close the windows sidebar and this can be done by making a right click on the Sidebar Icon in the Notification area and click Exit.
+ Then do the following Start > Programs > Accessories > right click Command Prompt > Run as Administrator.
+ Type the following commands
*regsvr32 msxml3.dll
*regsvr32 scrrun.dll
*regsvr32 jscript.dll
On successful registration, You will see the message like this “DllRegisterServer in <filename> succeeded for each command executed”.
Now open Windows Sidebar and now it will be seen. For opening sidebar you can also execute sidebar.exe in cmd prompt.
