Internet Explorer Menu Bar Above Nav Icons?


Recommended Posts

This is probably a dumb question, but is there any way to get the menu bar above the navigation buttons (forward, back, refresh, URL bar, etc) in IE7 like it is in almost every other program? I keep trying to, but I can't figure out how and I've been searching Google.

Anyone know how?

Ever since I installed IE 7, I have no menus at all. And I cannot get them on there for the life of me. I even tried the reg hack, and still nothing. It's weird cause it worked fine, then I reformatted and installed IE7 and now how no menus. Any ideas? And it always changes my homepage back to MSN.

Thank goodness. I hate this non-standard crap too. They spend YEARS solidifying a *standard* user interface and then decide to abandon it for no good reason. I'd be OK with it if there was the option to revert to the correct layout as is the case with the start panel vs start menu in XP.

Glad there's a fix for MS's lame call on this one.

Anyone got a solution for my problem? Ha. It's driving me crazy.

If you right click the toolbar is the "Menu Bar" option checked?

I have tried that, but there is no option to enable the Menu Bar. :( It's almost as if it doesn't exist. Haha.

You want Back above File? Why? Eh, maybe I'm used to it...

One thing I REALLY don't like though, is my File/etc bar has just been bleeping out a lot lately. I know it's definately not encoded for it in the HTML, it's on sites that don't make sense, IE just craps out from memory overload too easily now.

Now, I'm not accusing you of anything, but, this is just an observation of mine and correct me if I am wrong, but... there are some methods floating around the Internet that use the "update" function in the IE7 installation to bypass the native Genuine Advantage check. This "update" function fails to install a few hotfixes that install the new XML rendering in IE7 which will therefore cause you to A) not be able to configure your toolbars and B) cause the tabbed browsing functionality to not function.

Could this possibly be the case?
