Reg Tweak "Status Bar" sp2 not working.

[Astalavista]

i can't get my status bar to work. i hv tried all the reg tweaks i have found on msfn, i still can't get it to work.

my goal is to have Status bar activated\applied for all folders.

anyone got a working one? please post it thanks

When I installed SP2, my status bar went away. As soon as I applied the tweak below, any new explorer window I opened had the status bar. Didn't even reboot or log off.

; ** Enable Explorer Status Bar **
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main]
"StatusBarOther"=dword:00000001

Yep, that's where I saw the tweak and copied it for later use. Thanks Benners. Now that I'm using SP2, I've since applied that tweak and it does work.

yep, that why I needed this tweak, with service pack 1 the streams tweak worked, but when I loaded a slipstreamed sp2 there was no status bar.

When I turned on the status bar in sp2 the StatusBarOther key was added, setting it to zero hid the status bar and 1 showed it, this tweak does not work in sp1 so I can only assume Microsoft changed something.
