Showing Statusbar in Windows Explorer
-
Hi, Is there anyway I can make the hidden statusbar visible in Windows Explorer ? I am writing a shell extension and I have the IShellBrowser interface pointer. My extension shows everything in the status bar and if the user turns-off the visibility, I will be in trouble. So I would like to show the statusbar even if its hidden before when the user navigates to my extension. I will appreciate any help or pointers to solve this. Thanks Jugs
