My toolbar to send messages has disappeared. The toolbar to right shows only Unread, Starred, Contact, Tags, and Attachment. I was told to go to Options to be sure send email is checked but I don't have a icon that says Options.

Basic rule. If something is missing from your view, go to the VIEW menu. From the menu bar select View-Toolbars and turn on the missing toolbar. Send is on the Composition Toolbar.

You need to be in a Write window when doing this.

If your Menu Bar is missing also press the alt key to make it appear.

Alt brings the hidden menu bar into view so you can use it. Then you are to follow the remaining instruction to turn it on permanently.

I tried to move "reply" to the toolbar and it disappeared. I've tried to find it but it doesn't appear to be anywhere. I followed all of the instructions above and cannot get reply back. I really wanted to have reply on the toolbar, I use it a lot. My computer died and I started over with a new one and have the newer Thunderbird. I am 70 years old and not in any way a computer wizard.
