@Alglenne: I’m not sure what to tell you. I have not heard of that issue before. What happens if you press Enter instead of clicking Go?

Hey Ryan, thanks, I just reinstalled my address bar, but sorry to say I’ve hit a snag and I don’t know why. The address bar work except f0r the’GO’ command, I press ‘go’ but nothing happens. How do I fix it? Thanks

If the SP2 version of Browseui.dll seems to be crashing SP3 alot, try registering the replacement file with Regsvr32. Start -> Run then just type in ” regsvr32 %windir%\system32\browseui.dll ” and it should clear you right up. at least it seemed to for me

WOW!!! I GOT MY ADDRESS BAR BACK! (Please forgive the all CAPS here – just got a bit emotional)

Thank you Ryan, your solution actually works like a charm.

Ofcourse the batchfile did not work for me, but I opened it as text and manually copied the file to the mentioned locations and rebooted.

Here’s why the batch did not work for me:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1. The path was hardcoded as ‘c:\windows’ where as the path on my laptop (winxp) is c:\WINNT

2. I did not have permission (Even though I am a member of the administrators group) to delete the ‘c:\winnt\system32\browseui.dll’.

But I could rename the file as ‘browseui_SP3.dll’ and quickly rename the ‘browseui_SP2.dll’ to ‘browseui.dll’.

Note: If you let a couple of seconds elapse before you rename the new file, then Windows automatically creates a file called ‘browseui.dll’ which is effectively the SP3 version.

@Jeff: I guess this could be the reason, why it did not work for “Jeff”.

@Eric L: Point of clarification: you’ll need to press the Windows + R to open the run dialog.
