I guess this has been asked many times here but I unfortunately can't find
anything in the earlier posts.

Sidebar on my machine has been working fine for quite a long time but today
it will not load. I have rebooted the machine, checked the Sidebar
properties in Local Group Policy where "Turn Off Windows Sidebar" is set to
Not Configured (have also tried setting this to Disabled) but still no joy.

How do I get it back?

Type "sidebar" in the start menu search field, and click the executable for
the sidebar that comes up on the Startmenu. Go to the "Start BAr
Properties" and check the box "Start Sidebar when Windows Starts".
 
This is already checked, makes no difference

Thank you Shawn, this sorted out the problem.
