I'm not really sure which section this goes to, feel free to move this to wherever it seems fit. Anyways, Quero has broken for me in explorer. It only works in IE. In the toolbar context menu the "Quero" option toggles Classic Explorer Bar and the "Classic Explorer Bar" option does nothing. If I disable Quero in IE then the "Classic Explorer Bar" option is grayed out. Please tell me that it won't require a sfc /scannow (please no), and that it's only some registry entry or a certain system file that's causing this. Reinstalling Quero and deleting the registry key for it won't work. I'll post screenshots and reinstall Classic Shell 4.3.0 when I'm at my laptop Edit: Reinstalling Classic Shell 4.3.0 didn't work. Neither did reinstalling Quero. Edit 2: I might try Open-Shell, but I will have to live with a broken taskbar.
Edit 3: The reversed toggles got fixed after an update, but Quero still remains broken.

It would leave some files (also delete them), then reinstall? I had the problem that Quero Toggles Classic Explorer Bar but Classic Explorer Bar toggles Quero. |

For some reason after uninstalling Quero my Classic Explorer Bar option is blank now, and I can't find registry keys for Quero. Does anyone know where Quero registry keys are stored?
I wish. Classic Explorer can make an address bar that has proper high-dpi support.

I would imagine it being a replica of the address bar at 98 - XP, we could either ask the Open-Shell developers to add it in, or once again, somebody take the mantle. |

A replica of the 98 - XP address bar. Classic Explorer is Open-Source so we could base the address bar on the existing toolbar code and just have a way to read the directory and translate CLSIDs. Easier said than done, though. |

I really wish I had an answer for you in regards to getting it working. All I know is, I installed it, and it showed up in Explorer pretty much straight away.
The only thing I can think of is maybe try and see it if's enabled in Explorer by using Autoruns?

Maybe one of them screwed it up? That or yeah, Quero bugged out on you. TBH, Quero is not really the perfect solution anyway. It's pretty much luck that File Explorer still shares code with IE for it to work (when it wants to). Ideally, a replacement is needed, but afaik there is none. Also, apologizes, I accidentally clicked on "edit" instead of "Quote" on your post. My bad. |

I had feature updates disabled (to avoid getting the awful huge explorer address bar) but security updates enabled. But as far as I remember the day it bugged out there were no updates. And yeah, agreed. Quero is not an ideal solution. It's bugged out in explorer, it shows CLSIDs instead of the intended location, and overall just isn't meant for explorer. I have wanted a standalone address bar for a long time that actually has the same functionality as the Windows XP and older address bar. But sadly there isn't any yet. There's QTAddressBar, but it doesn't look classic and it's buggy. It also doesn't support highdpi properly. We could base the new standalone address bar on that, but again, it's harder than it sounds. |

I even went to scourer the depths of the internet, still no address bar toolbar, it just useless "Address Bar" gone questions. I'm starting to get fed up of Quero. It's better than nothing.  |

We could base the new standalone address bar on that, but again, it's harder than it sounds. Another quirk with Quero is disabled keyboard shortcuts in File Explorer. What we need is a navigator bar made from scratch, and tailor made for Classic theme, but alas that is far easier said than done. Only address bar I know with source code available is Quero, and even that's not perfect as already been discussed. |
