IE7 Manage Add-ons not Displaying Correctly

This is odd:
add-ons.jpg
As you can see, the right columns, normally showing publisher and status, have disappeared. Looks the same if I start IE without add-ons. I check the add-ons from time to time, but I am not sure what has happened here since last. I believe I have installed an nVidia ActiveX to detect latest driver for my graphics card, and yesterday I installed update 11 to Java 6.

Ideas for troubleshooting/fixing are most welcome.

Hi submarine

Have you tried to right click on the column title bar you should see the option to tick the columns you want visible

Thanks a lot Barman. How easy when you know it (and how hopeless when you don't). I right clicked everywhere but there.

Only thing it disappears again when I close and reopen. Must be a default setting somewhere...

Hi,

that's a strange one , unless it's related to what's set-up for explorer, you know, a shared registry entry on something, or it could be one of those where it resets only when it feels like there have been a few of those reported

as for a default you could try setting it how you like in "safe" mode explorer and see if that makes a difference

Thanks, that's a good suggestion. Will try it tomorrow. Who nows, it may have sorted itself out by then.

No luck, I'm afraid. Must be some registry entries gone missing.
I hate when that happens.
