I've seen many instances of this issue throughout the internet, but I
can't seem to find a way to fix it.

When I have multiple Internet Explorer windows open in Windows XP home
edition, it groups them as Windows Explorer instead of Internet
Explorer.

Can someone please help?

Thanks,
Meg

I have tried these solutions and have XP with service pack 2. I'm
still experiencing the issue.

If you're added the value correctly and the problem is still seen, then I
have no further ideas. Perhaps you can export the contents of this registry
key, so that I can verify it:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Applications\IE XPLORE.EXE

I think this is the info you asked for?
Key Name:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Applications\IE XPLORE.EXE
Class Name: <NO CLASS>
Last Write Time: 10/23/2005 - 7:26 PM

Yes, but where is the "TaskbarGroupIcon" value that you added?

Sorry, here it is:
Key Name:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Applications\IE XPLORE.EXE
Class Name: <NO CLASS>
Last Write Time: 10/24/2005 - 9:01 PM
Value 0
Name: TaskbarGroupIcon
Type: REG_EXPAND_SZ
Data: %Programfiles%\Internet Explorer\IExplore.exe

The entry is correctly set. Does the problem persist now?

Yes, I still have the same problem.

Running out of ideas. TaskbarGroupIcon setting is respected by all of my XP
systems here.
