Missing the “add tab group to favorites ” option in IE8












1















I have internet options selected for quick tabs and tab groups in settings, IE8 WIndows XP.



I can open a list of favorites from the menu using the blue arrow as a tab group.

I can then use the quick tabs button to show the groups open.



However, I do not have the "add tab group to favorites" option in the pull down menu for favorites at the Favorite Bar.



Is this a Vista feature only?



I just checked two of my Vista basic machines SP2, one also does NOT have the option.



The laptop DOES have the option.
