Classic Start Menu

[Giant]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.customize (More info?)

I' running XP and when I right click the taskbar and go to 'properties' and
then 'start menu' my only option is Classic Start Menu, which appears at the
bottom; it looks like something else should be above that, but not. How do I
get that to appear so I can use the XP Start Menu interface?

Hi

Do you have the same problem if you right click the Start button and select
Properties?

I did. After sending this, I read a post about running gpedit.msc and found
where I can disable the 'force use classic menu'. Now, I wonder where it is
where I can enable the xp view in IE (currently showing the classic view
still)
