It may just be my install, but I am unable to locate the Launcher gadget for the sidebar in Beta 2.
I also am unable to add any favorites or links to Internet Explorer.
Is anyone else having these problems?
Thanks, Norm

That Gadget has been removed since build 5365, no status on whether it will return in a later build.
You can add a web page to your favorites in IE 7, by clicking the Plus sign beside the star or by pressing "Alt" on your keyboard > click "Favorites" > Add to Favorites

Andre, thanks for the quick reply. I do hope they put the Launcher gadget back in, as I found it useful.
I have tried clicking on Add Favorites and the + sign, but nothing gets added.
I moved my Favorites folder to another drive and maybe something is messed up in the registry, but all the entries I am used to show the favorites folder as being D:\Favorites, but none of the entries show up in Internet Explorer and I can't add any.

The Launcher and other gadgets will be available from www.microsoftgadgets.com for use in Vista and the Live.com homepage :o)

Zack, I have looked there, but it is not posted as of now.
I guess I will reinstall Vista and make sure everything works before I start changing. I had problems with build 5270 the first time I installed it and they went away with a reinstall.

Adding Favourites works fine for me, so I guess it may have to do with your "moving" :)
