I have students whose toolbars "disappear" and global settings does not help.

As mentioned, I have 2 students that have somehow deleted their toolbars. I've been given 2 solutins so far and neither one has helped.

I have went into "customize user interface," but it won't let me bring them back. It is only on that student's login and on that particular computer.

If they use another computer, or another student uses that computer, the toolbars come up. The FAQ didn't help me because; there is no folder titled "electronics workbench"; There is a folder titled National instruments, but there is no folder under it titled "ewb9"; and the only "ewcfg" files I could find were default files, no "ewcfg" files with anyone's user name could be found. I tried going into the global restrictions using the password given, and none of the disable boxes are checked.  I should also calirify that the toolbars do show up, but they are only a small grey square.  You can mov ethem, but you can't "open" them.

I have Version 10 and I am not sure this is the same for Version 9, but here is what I know. In version 10 the config giles are contained in the Documents and Setting folder on the main drive. For example mine is located here: C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Application Data\National Instruments\Circuit Design Suite\10.1\config.

 

You might try to look and see if you have something simular on your machine. Once you do find these config files. Just delete them and re-launch Multisim/Ultiboard and the program will rebuild them and restore them back to the original default settings. This should also restore the toolbars. At least this is what I have read in the forums in the past. I have not had any toolbars disappear, so I have not tried this personally. It will do no harm to your install, but may not help with the problem. The only thing to do is give it a try and cross your fingers.

 

I hope this helps as I do not have Version 9 and this is about all I can tell you.
