IE7 Address Bar cleared on reboot


Recommended Posts

There is no need for privacy on the PC I use (I don't enter incriminating sites into the a-bar anyway). Yet it seems that on reboot, the address bar is wiped. I have not enabled any such option, not in IE7 nor in IE7 Pro (the only addon the former has installed).

So what is causing this and how I stop it? It's a pain to have to re-enter everything.

Hmmm... the only thing I can think of is double check that you don't have any boxes ticked for Deleting Browser History. Other than this are you running any 3rd party programs that could be wiping it? CCleaner etc?

Nope, haven't installed CCleaner or anything like it on this PC.

EDIT: I double-checked everything that could possibly be at fault: IE7, IE7 Pro, TweakUIXP, Kaspersky. Nothing had an option that even suggested "clear address bar on restart".

Tools | Internet Options | Browsing History {section just above middle} | Settings {button in Browsing History section} : History {section at bottom} | Days to keep pages in history

????

Or... you've disabled UAC and your user account doesn't have the proper priveledges to write to your "app data" folder?
