Menu Bar in Internet 7 Missing

G

Guest

Does anyone know how to get the Menu Bar (File-Edit-View-Tools-Help) to
display in IE 7? I have looked through the help and support pages, as well as
searched the knowledge base and these forums and "No Results" turns up. Has
the Menu Bar been dropped from IE 7? If not, is there a way to display it.
Thank you for whatever ideas you might have.

Right-click the toolbar, and put a checkmark near "Menu Bar".

Dave, thank you for your prompt reply. I don't know why "Menu Bar" is not
listed in the "Help" pages of IE 7 or in the Knowledge Base. Even now, if I
do a search for "Menu Bar" in the newsgroups, no results are displayed, even
though I have asked the question and you answered it. I assume it is called
Menu Bar in the application and something else in the support and forum
databases. In any case, I now have the menu bar back.

FWIW, you can also move the menu bar back to the "normal"top line of the
window, with this .reg file:

------cut------
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Toolbar\WebBrowser]

"ITBar7Position"=dword:00000001
------cut------

to put it back the "new" way just remove the key added above:

----cut----
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Toolbar\WebBrowser]

"ITBar7Position"=-
;; the minus sign means delete the key
-----cut----

The solution is quoted in your message?

To the right of the Tabs you should see Tools. Click the drop down arrow and
select Menu Bar.

Dave Patrick can you please give me the information you gave chdiamo
regarding how to get his menu bar back in IE explorer? The discussion
group
reply you gave was noted by him to have worked in restoring his menu bar
but
that reply is not in the post. My recently downloaded IE7 is also missing
the menu bar and I am chewing nails.
