After the upgrade to Windows 10, many of us discovered that in the new version of IE, called Microsoft Edge, the favorites toolbar is missing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You may think that keeping the toolbar intact would be intuitive during the Windows 10 upgrade, but it&#8217;s not so in all cases. The good news is that it&#8217;s super easy to restore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Viewing_Toolbars\"><\/span>Viewing Toolbars<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>First of all, toolbars can be added or removed through Internet Explorer&#8217;s View menu. Open an Internet Explorer window. Select the View menu at the top of the screen. Select the Toolbars option to view all available toolbars. Toolbars with a check beside them are currently visible. Missing the Favorites Toolbar? Click it to enable it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"i\"><\/span>&nbsp;&nbsp;<ins><\/ins><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Restoring_Favorites_Toolbar\"><\/span>Restoring Favorites Toolbar<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As mentioned, if a check does not exist beside the Favorites Toolbar, clicking this option will restore both the Favorites icon and any other icons associated with the Favorites toolbar. If this action doesn&#8217;t restore the icon you will have to reset your toolbars. The icon may have been deleted when customizing the toolbar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To access customized settings, go to&nbsp;<strong>View &gt; Toolbars &gt; Customize.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If Customize isn&#8217;t available to you, right click in any empty section of the menu and toolbar area (the light gray area of the window). Then select Customize &gt; Add or Remove Commands &gt; Reset &gt; OK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have customized toolbars, take a screenshot of the toolbar so you can re-build it if it&#8217;s lost. Once you press Reset you&#8217;ll lose your customized settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Add_Remove_or_Change_the_Order_of_Toolbar_Buttons\"><\/span>How to Add, Remove, or Change the Order of Toolbar Buttons<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>To add a button to the Standard Buttons toolbar, use the following steps.<\/strong>1&nbsp;On the View menu, point to Toolbars, and then click Customize.2&nbsp;In the Available Toolbar Buttons box, click the button or separator you want to add, and then click Add.3&nbsp;NOTE: You can add a separator to divide toolbar buttons into groups.
