I lost it a few days ago...nothing new done.  Working on Windows 7http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/ie/forum/ie8-windows_other/favorites-disappeared-cant-load-favorites/262e98f4-3329-463d-892f-25d982107cd0
good-luck,truenorthThe only place it SHOWS up is when I 1st click on Google.  Anything else I click on it does not show up.  I went to the MS report 2nd secsion where you press window key +R but when I opened Regedit There was no User accound there?

You lost a column in what ? ?
We thrive on details here...I had assumed that the O/P had lost the "favorites" column. Sure sounded like it to me hence my posted link. Guess not.truenorthI am on Windows 7 and have not changed anything.  It started a few days ago..lost Favorites Column in everything except igoogle the 1st thing that opens.Post some screen shots and then maybe we can GET somewhere with this discussion.  Everytime I try to post a screen shot it does not work!Would you please relate to my post and tell us if you have checked it out and TRIED it?truenorthI took prints of 2 screens but they are too large.  I used to have a way to TAKE them down, but it was in my favorites!Is this favorites column the same as favorites bar? Have you tried right-clicking below URL BOX and checkmark favorites bar?WHAT Favorites Column? Please tell us exactly what you are talking about. Thank you.I have reached the conclusion that this O/P will NOT reply to anything that we may post so I'm leaving the arena, truenorth
