IE 11 Won't show toolbar on startup
Hi,
I have a small but annoying problem with a fresh install of Win 7 and IE 11. I originally installed Win 7 a year ago and IE 11 would happily show a RoboForm Toolbar (login assistant) whenever I started the browser. The motherboard recently failed and I just finished rebuilding the computer with a fresh Win 7 install, now with all available updates. RoboForm toolbar will now only show after I go to one of the various menus and explicitly start it. For example, from the main IE menu bar > Tools > "Show RoboForm Toolbar". Or via the IE "Tools" icon, Internet Options, Programs tab, Manage Add-Ons and Enable RoboForm toolbar and components.
I have searched this forum and found some suggestions on getting toolbars to load. For example, all of the RoboForm add-ons in the Manage Add-Ons screen are "Enabled". IE Protected Mode is turned OFF. I used the Group Policy Editor to allow users to add toolbars. There was a suggestion to modify a setting in the Internet Options > Advanced > Security area - on my version of IE, that setting did not exist.
I have exhausted all of the suggestions, but I still have to explicitly enable the toolbar with each session, which is not the way it is supposed to work. Does anyone know of another tweak to get IE to do the right thing?
BTW, I assume the first suggestion many will offer is to use a better browser. I had Firefox on my last computer and rarely used it - I guess I don't ask much from a browser.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
