Windows 10: Win 10 Pro 10.0.17763 File Explorer Status Bar is gone

Changing "Show status bar" in advance settings does nothing.


The reg key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced is set to 1.


I recently did a "repair upgrade" because system seemed slower than it should be, other issues. Status bar was gone after the repair upgrade.

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

The Status Bar gone in File Explorer in latest Insider Preview builds! *Mad

It's still in the registry and it's enabled for Explorer in the registry but it does NOT show any more! *Confused

I have been used to using this for decades like many other users so why did Microsoft remove/permanently disable it? *Mad

I cannot see why they would want to do that! *sarc
