Please tell me how to get the bar at the top of my screen back?

Question

I don't know what it's called. Browser maybe? It appears when I move the arrow with the mouse to the top of the screen, then it disappears. It's driving me crazy!!!!! Please Help!!!!!

Also the bar at the bottom is missing. Well it's really skinny and I can't see the start button etc.

Okay it is the complete bar at the top. The entire bar is gone. The one that is typically at the top that has the arrows on the left, favorites, internet browser?, tool buttons, print buttons, page buttons, etc. The only time it appears is when I move the mouse arrow to the top which is how I am able to get anywhere on the internet. When I move the mouse arrow anywhere else on the screen the entire "bar" disappears. Also the entire "bar" at the bottom of the screen is completely gone.......you know the one that has the start button, and whatever else is there.....the time, all little icons? Somebody please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Well here I am again.....If I minimize this screen and open up the internet again.....wah lah there it all is in all its glory just like normal like it used to be. What is that all about? I'm so confused. I believe I'm talking about the address bar and everything else that is normally at the top of your screen. Oh I am so frusturated at this point and obviously computer illiterate.

Answer 1

This is called the Menu Bar? It helps you locate your different folders or icons? Get your mouse, than right-click your mouse, you should see the options to add the Menu Bar. But due to various Menu Bars through the demographics of the Computer and the hey-day of the internet and wifii; sometimes Menu Bars change, so altogether just search somewhere with your mouse for the Menu Bar; you should find it soon.

Answer 2

well. let me see if i understood your question.....
analyzing what you just said, you re talking about the task bar, am i right....

OK.. its pretty complicated to explain but here i go

first, i think that you accidentally moved your task bar to the top of the screen... if it is not locked you can grab it and drag it to any side of the screen (bottom, top, left or right)

if you make right click on the bar you will find "properties". Once you done it a windows will pop-up. There you'll have a few options, and now you can deselect the option "auto-hide task bar", and it will be back.

now what you have to do is to move it to wherever you want, but it's recommendable to put in the bottom of the screen...

hope this help...

Answer 3

Go up and select View and click on toolbars. One of them got unchecked. Check each and see if yours comes back. Also, the status bar is the bar at the bottom. Check that if you want that visible.
