aOn my scripted installed Windows 2000 machines, the file panel in Explorer
(the left one, with all the folders) stays gray.

Does anyone know how to fix this ? All machines are up to date with the
latest patches.

this applies to 98 but may help with your issue?

Didn't apply to Windows 2000, it's about the ExplorerBar value, but the
entire key doesn't exist in Windows 2000. Still, I think it's got something
to do with IE6, the problem only surfaces until after I install IE6.

It's a nasty one....

Steve,

Surely the user is talking about the ListView control on the right rather
than the TreeView control on the left of explorer. At least that's what it
sounds like to me.
