[RESOLVED] Add User Control NOT AVAILABLE?
I am using VB6 (SP6) Enterprise edition, running for quite a long time without any problems. I have it set up on 2 separate WinXP computers. on 1 machine I cannot get the "Add User Control" to show up. When I start a new project, > right click Project1, > Add, then the 'User Control' option is not visible at all. On my other machine, the 'User Control' option is there as it should be.
I have tried loading without any add-ins disabled, but makes no difference.
Is there something that I’ve inadvertently setup up differently or incorrectly that is causing the 'Add User Control' to be not visible?

Run Regedit
Find the entry for Visual Basic 6.0
Export your settings in case things go wrong
Delete the 'UI' setting
Run VB and you will have your popup menus back

I have a similar issue but mine is related to Immediate window behavior in sense that I cannot bring/dock the window on the below of the IDE. Could you tell me what properties are set under UI? Could they be changed accidentally by user or by other apps? Is not any secondary effect to remove all entries from UI? Thanks.
