Explorer Toolbar Problem

Explorer Toolbar Problem

Hello,
At first I didn't like QTTABAR, so I uninstalled it. Then i thought about it and tried it again. So in my infinite amount of knowledge, I was messing around with explorer's toolbars. I then deleted all of them (I don't know why)

So, I did a system restore to get the bars back after fruitless Google Searches. Now I need the Menu Bar (F10) In internet explorer. When I right-Click on the toolbar the menu toolbar does not come up. Does anyone know of a soltuin to my problem?
Thank You very much,
Stefan

In Internet Explorer 7 press the Alt key to call the Menu bar (Alt is actually a toogle for the Menu Bar); this should confirm that it is still displayable. Then in Tools, select Menu Bar to display it by default.

In the event this procedure fails, IE7 is not native to Windows XP, so it can be uninstalled and reinstalled via download from Microsoft.

Not sure how to repair it in Vista. I believe Microsoft does provide free tech support for it.

Good luck! — post back.

Thank you for your response, but my problem is in Windows Explorer, not internet explorer 7 (sorry i wasn't clear). I did try the ALT button, but it does the same as F10 (i assume they are interchangeable buttons) and it brings up a drop down box. I have tryed ALT+T (shortcut for Tools menu) and for whatever reason it exits out of Explorer. I have also as a last measure resort went to internet options in control Panel. Also I'm running XP Home SP3.

Is this Vista or XP? If XP, the menu is probably hidden behind some toolbar, since I don't think it can be disabled. Try double-clicking on those grabbers thing, the ones used to resize toolbars, making sure that toolbar area is not locked first.

If Vista, I'm not familiar.
