MDaemon Toolbar Fix

Every once in a while MDaemon’s toolbars will disappear, or refuse to save their positions.  This happens more with older versions of MDaemon, but it can still ocassionally crop up.  Luckily, the fix is simple:

1) Shut MDaemon down

2) Open up the Registry Editor

3) Export out this key and all keys under it

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Alt-N Technologies\MDaemon\Toolbars]

4) Delete the entire Key once it has been exported

5) Restart MDaemon, go to the Windows menu and choose “Reset Toolbars”, this will create a new set of keys with the toolbars in their default positions.

6) Shut down MDaemon again using one of the controls within MDaemon’s GUI to ensure that MDaemon saves the registry entries.

  1. Yesterday on my Windows 7 x64 device, my toolbar for my MDaemon webmail window in Firefox inexplicably disappeared (in my Chrome browser it was still visible). However, the above solution did not work for me (the registry key does not even exist on my device). I spent a lot of time looking for a solution, and finally found that the problem was a conflict between my Google™ Translator (web-extension) add-on and the MDaemon webmail toolbar. I disabled this add-on and re-opened the MDaemon webmail window and, voilà, everything was back to normal.

    Just saying this in case anyone else has the same problem, i.e. a conflict with this add-on or, perhaps, with another. To test this, I suggest disabling all your add-ons and, if this solves the problem, then start re-enabling them one by one until you find the one that is causing the conflict.

    Hope this helps someone :-)

  2. It’s wortg noting that this reticle applies to MDaemon’s toolbars, not WorldClient and browser level interactions. However, great tip as people having trouble with either might land here.

  3. Thanks for the clarification, Dave. I did wonder, when I couldn’t find on my device the reg key you referred to, if something like that might be so regarding the content of your article.

    Anyway, hoping the solution to my problem might help someone visiting this site.
