| Hey,
I can't get the "Active Desktop" to work on my Win 98 Toshiba Tecra 8000
laptop with IE 6.0.
These are the symptoms:
1. The "Web" tab is missing from Display Properties.
2. When I right-click on the desktop, there is no Active Desktop or
"view as web page" option.
3. When I click Start/Settings/Active Desktop/"View As Web Page":
- no check appears next to the "View As Web Page" option.
- a blank vertical scroll bar appears on the right side of the
display and all desktop icons disappear (i can get them back by refreshing
the display).
I've tried changing the "Windows Desktop Update" in
"Explorer/Tools/Folder Options/General" to "Web Style", but that didn't
help.
The registry shows that Active Desktop *is* installed. The registry also
shows that the Desktop is "Not being displayed as a web page". I got this
info from Microsoft KB item:
http://support.microsoft.com/defaul...kb;en-us;216840
I just want to try this Active Desktop, I don't necessarily plan on
using it.
Any ideas?
thanks,
js.
