  • If, on Windows, in Firefox 3.6 the menu bar is hidden then press and hold the Alt key down or press F10, that should make the "Menu Bar" appear
  • Go to "View > Toolbars" and check-mark "Menu Bar" with a click on it to make that permanent. See Restore the Menu bar in Firefox).
  • Make sure that you have the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" visible: "View > Toolbars"
  • If items are missing then see if you can find them in the "View > Toolbars > Customize" window
  • If you see the missing item in the Customize window then drag it back from the Customize window onto one of the toolbars.
  • If, in "View > Toolbars > Customize", you do not see that item then click the "Restore Default Set" button

Thank you for the suggestions.

I posted a reply earlier today saying that the setting under View, Naviagation Toolbar was NOT checked, so I checked it and all is well with the arrows for back and forward and the field for URL's is now visible.

I found a Knowledgebase document that suggested the above and then posted two replies to my questions the resolve them.

Best Regards,

Aaron
