JmC That was great! The problem is solved. Thanks a million. I chose the first option. I used the Find feature for the NoFileMenu and found the entry in the Right Panel. The value was "1" which I changed to "0". On re-booting, I had the "File" Menu feature back - both in Internet and File Explorer. I also checked for the Restrictions User Key under HKEY_CURRENT_USERS and also HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINES but there were no File Menu Restrictions under the sw\policies\IE\Restrictions. Thanks a ton for the excellent guidance! cr
