Internet Explorer address bar?

Question

I inherited an old PC with windows ME on it and Internet Explorer v. 6.0. There is no address bar. When I go to View, Toolbars, and Address Bar, I can make a tiny box with "Address" show up, but I cannot make it bigger to type anything in, and although it looks like a box, it is not clickable. There is a line under the first d in Address so I tried doing Alt-D, nothing happened. Any help? The only way I can get around on the web is by using yahoo search, and I'd rather use the address bar! Thanks.

Answer 1

Make sure your Menu Bar is unlocked. Then put you cursor at the right side of the address bar. When the pointer changes, drag it wider.

Answer 2

You might have the Standard Toolbar Status as locked. Click on view and then on toolbar and see if there's a checkmark beside Lock the toolbar. Uncheck it. And then when you see the little address bar box. Try to hold the junction by clicking on it and then drag it down. This will resolve the issue. If it doesn't work and you want to go to any particular website you can click on keyboard Ctrl+O and this will open up a box and then type the address of the website and its done. You can also find this Open option under File menu.

Answer 3
