I E 9 Favourites Bar
10 Answers
I downloaded to my Windows 7 an update yesterday which included the new I E 9.
I've found however that my beloved favourites bar running along the top, containing
Answerbank etc had vanished. After some investigation I found a symbol on the top right which contained all my favourites from I E 8.
How do I reinstate the tool bar with my selected sites? It was so much easier than now.
Thanks for any advice.

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Kayakamina, I have the same problem, IE9 was downloaded a couple of weeks ago. I really don't like my Favourites down the right hand side and I find the new tab reminders really annoying - plus if you click on them, your remembered user names aren't remembered - and there are annoying boxes along the bottom of the screen too on some sites (including this). I've been advised that the only way to reset it is to de-install (?) IE9 and go back to the previous version (in my case IE8). Redman was reporting problems too the other day.
My biggest problem is that I can't access a work website, our IT people at work say that the two aren't compatible, I would have to use "broken link" whatever that is, to be able to see our work site.

Just right click on a blank area to the right of the tabs and select favourites bar.
Also this site (and several others) work a lot better if you click the compatibility mode icon just the the right of the address bar. (looks like a torn bit of paper)
Lastly...
Uninstalling IE9 is not a problem and is not scary, it's very straight forward, but as IE9 is far better than IE8 I'd recommend upgrading if you can (you can't install IE9 on windows XP)
