All menubars and button bars have disappeared

Post by 2min4roughing »

I started up Textpad 5.02 today and all the bars had disappeared. Only the window bar displays along with the document and the explorer is docked to the left. I couldn't make the File menu display by clicking Alt+F. I could tell my last workspace was loading, but I didn't see any tabs.

I tried upgrading to 5.20 hoping that would fix the issue. However, that didn't work. Uninstalling 5.20 and then reinstalling did not work. Neither did using the Modify option on the installation program.

Any ideas? Seems like it could be a registry setting.

TIA,
Jason

Please try renaming the file config.xml, which you will find at the following location, and then try starting up TextPad. Exit from TextPad before renaming the file.

C:\Documents and Settings\User name\Application Data\Helios\TextPad\5.0

I hope this helps.
