Please note that this add-on requires .NET Framework v2.0 in order to operate. Failure to install it will result in no navigation buttons or address bar by default, however, it will show up once .NET is installed.

QT Address Bar 0.9.6
Replaces the standard address bar to make your XP addressbar more handy, like in Vista.

QTTab Bar v1.2.2.1
Adds tabs to your Windows Explorer and replaces the standard buttons with the QT Standard Buttons.

ChangeLog:
v1.0 = Initial release of add-on
v1.1 = Fixed entries to add correct filenames to the XP source.
v2.0 = Added uninstaller so it is now removable.

NOTICE: I've corrected the incorrect version numbers in the topic title by swapping the 2 version numbers around. Sorry if this lead to confusion for anybody!

 
QT Address Bar 0.9.6 ONLY
mooms modified my original add-on to remove the QT Tab Bar portion and added a working uninstaller to the add-on! Thank you, mooms, ricktendo64, and Kelsenellenelvian!!!

Uninstaller Present

With the Help of ricktendo64, the inf now delete the files on next reboot.
No more need to kill explorer, much better uninstall !

Still one glitch : Original XP address bar will be restored only for the user who had launched the uninstall.
Other user(s) will have to manually re-enable the XP address bar after uninstall of QTAdressBar.
It's a HKCU key, so i can't do better. (tried HKLM and HKCR, no go)

No Uninstaller Present

I have also updated the non-uninstallable version, now the inf and pnf files are deleted on reboot and sysoc.inf is cleaned after install.
The install is flawless now.

want to try this QTBar true addon in my new xp project,but i found you used the different name in the archive,
i'm afraid this would destroy the whole inf installation

[dougiefresh]

OOPS! You're right, it would break installs! I've uploaded v1.1 with the problem fixed!

This addon is great, but it cause my unattended to semi-fail (no themes, no custom tweaks applied, etc....)!
i have found the reason in the file Entries_QT_Bar.ini:

builddate=2009/05/23
description=QTBar & QT Address Bar Add-On
language=English (United States)
title=QT_Tab Add-On
version=1.1

[sysoc]
QT_Tab=ocgen.dll,OcEntry,QT_Tab.inf,HIDE,7

[dosnet_files]
d1,QT_Tab.inf
d1,QT_Tab.cab

[txtsetup_files]
QT_Tab.cab = 100,,,,,,_x,,3,3
QT_Tab.inf = 100,,,,,,,20,0,0

[i386_compress]
rvmtemp\extracted\QT_Tab.inf

it should be:

I'm surprised that nobody have reported that!

i have uploaded a corriged version:

@mooms,
Thanx for inf bug fix

[stsaerox]

Please can you help me to keep these settings after unattended installation?



edit: found this key:HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar
and was looking into subfolders.

If I integrate these settings will that work?

Edited by stsaerox, 23 January 2010 - 09:49 PM.

[dougiefresh]

Updated add-on to v2.0 and added the ability to uninstall the add-on via Add/Remove Programs.

mooms: I'm sorry for the VERY late reply! I've fixed the add-on so that it will integrate properly. It's uploaded now.

stsaerox: I'm sorry for the late reply. There are two keys that I'm aware of that affect Windows Explorer. These keys are:
(1) Key: HKCUSOFTWAREMicrosoftInternet ExplorerToolbar, Value: ITBarLayout
(2) Key: HKCUSOFTWAREMicrosoftInternet ExplorerToolbar, Value: {710EB7A1-45ED-11D0-924A-0020AFC7AC4D}
Exporting these two keys and importing them into the add-on should preserve those settings.

[mooms]

anyone have made a backup of v2.0 ? if so please set a mirror!

I wasn't aware that the download link wasn't working. I've fixed it so that the file is now downloadable.... Really sorry about that!

I have testedv2.0, uninstallation did not work, i stick with v1.1 as it works well.
Thank you anyway !
