A few weeks ago I lost all my tabs at the top. I tried looking online for different suggestions. Some said to hit Alt + V, but that didn't work. Can you help? I've lost the parts that say "File, edit, view, history, bookmarks, etc..."

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Well my husband ran a check on my computer, and it turned out I had a lot of viruses on it! So we got that all cleaned up and protected, so now it's all back! Thanks though. I've been dealing with this issue for over a month!
