Vista - Vista explorer bar

Vista explorer bar

I have a Dell 530s running windows home premium. All has been working so
well I couldn't believe it. Then today when I signed on to my Yahoo
homepage and wanted to save a document I had downloaded I noticed that the
uppermost toolbar, the one with File, Edit, Tools, etc, just wasn't there.
When I went to tools it showed all the toolbars were there, including the
status bar and the explorer bar, but in fact the explorer is nowhere in
sight.

Any help or suggestions of how to restore it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

jerry.nh@verizon.net

Re: Vista explorer bar

Hi,

First, right click the header. Is "menu bar" checked? If not, then click on
it to check it and have it reappear. Second, if it is checked, then I'd
suspect that it is underneath another one. Click on "lock the toolbars" if
it is checked and the drag things around a bit to uncover it.

Re: Vista explorer bar

Thanks for your reply. Menu bar IS checked. I did unlock the toolbar and
dragged everything I could around but still couldn't find it. I think I am
looking for the explorer bar. When I click on it in toolbars it opens
another small window that says 'discuss'. When I open that window nothing
happens. I'm sure somehow that is the problem and still don't know why I
can't view the explorer bar.

Re: Vista explorer bar

Part of my problem is that don't have the file, edit or view anyplace in
sight. I also don't see organize,, views, etc. When I open the toolbars it
show Menu bar is checked, and when I go to explorer bar all I get is the
'discuss' option, and that doesn't do anything. I thought all of this was
what was on the explorer bar.
