menu bar
My menu bar just recently is now greyed out, and therefore I can't access any of the links on it, file,edit,view,favorites, tools and help. I don't recall doing anything to perpetrate this action. How do I resolve this problem and get the menu bar to show black again so I can use it? Hoping someone can help. Thank you.

Re: menu bar
From the Menu Bar selections which you have outlined, I assume you are talking about Internet Explorer. Simply right-click in an empty area of the IE screen (above the "back" and "forward" arrows for example) and make sure that "Menu Bar" is checked. Hopefully this will work for you.

Re: menu bar
Rebel,
Thank you for your reply. I already tried your suggestion Rebel, to no affect. The menu bar is being shown in IE, and normally it is in black. But, in the last few days and not all the time, it appears in grey and I can not navigate any of the links within it at all. I have no idea as to why this has started to happen now? Again, the menu bar is shown in IE and the links within it are shown: file,edit,view,favorites,tools and help, but it will not work, and when this happens the print within the menu bar appears grey. Any idea what is going on?

Re: menu bar
Go to Control Panel, Internet Options. Advance tab, there at the bottom click "Reset" to reset the IE settings.

DaveA,
Thank you for your reply. Next time the situation comes up with the menu bar being greyed out and not be workable, I will use your suggestion, DaveA and see what happens. Thank you again for your input, and I will let you know if it works.
