Running Windows 7. Accidently closed the toolbar that has the main functions (File/Edit/View/etc). I cannot locate anywhere to reinstate the toolbar.

"File/Edit/etc": That's the Menu Bar; see below.

Menu Bar (File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, Help)
Firefox 3.6.x versions allow the user to hide the Menu Bar.

  • Tap the ALT key or the F10 key, Menu Bar will display, click View, click Toolbars, click Menu Bar to place a check mark next to it, OR
  • Press and hold the ALT key while pressing the letters VTM on your keyboard, then release the ALT key
