Chosen solution

The Firefox button is on by default only in Windows Vista and Windows 7. You can turn it on in Windows XP.

  • Menu Bar checked=Menu Bar on and Firefox button off
  • Menu Bar unchecked=Menu Bar off and Firefox button on
  • To change Menu Bar selection:
    1. View > Toolbars OR Firefox button > Options > Toolbar Layout OR right-click in an empty area of the toolbars (at end of Tab Bar is good)
    2. click Menu Bar to add or remove the check mark
  • See Menu bar is missing
