For the past month, the menu toolbar has not been visible. The only way I can get it appearing (Windows 10), is to restart MMW. Another skin appears, with the toolbar. So on my pc toolbar doesn't appear with some skins; does appear with others.
I don't want the skins to change upon restart; that's a new development, too.
And my Backup 6 has stopped working after working fine for several months...I've read the Backup 6 thread, changed various settings, but....
I'm also getting notice that MM.DB cannot be opened; would you like to create a new local library? maybe a restart of windows 10 will help.
Where has the title bar gone?

Have you tried View > something that refers to the menu at top of drop-down menu (don't have MM in front of me)?PDoyle wrote:For the past month, the menu toolbar has not been visible.

Re: Where has the title bar gone?
Wouldn't this be better in a fresh post? This thread is about the missing title bar, not the menu bar.

You could try it on the MM icon that in Win 7 MM is on the title bar and which I see on the Win 10 MM is on the menu bar, left end.
Also perhaps post a screenshot including the full Win 10 MM top.
Here's a full width screenshot, FWIW:

Middle-clicking anywhere in my titlebar-less MM on this Win 10 PC does nothing.
I'll try including that screenshot again. First time it was sized to fit the message window width, which was unexpected.

EDIT: ... and I see that's consistent. Not that there are any elements of interest on the right anyway.

--------------------
I have at least one other major app with no titlebar, Excel 365. But a middle click in an empty part of its top area display my macro menus, as for all other programs. MM remains the exception.

Re: Where has the title bar gone?
That's the thing; there IS no 'View' to select; there are no menu commands appearing at all.MMFrLife wrote:Have you tried View > something that refers to the menu at top of drop-down menu (don't have MM in front of me)?PDoyle wrote:For the past month, the menu toolbar has not been visible.
The only visible thing is the MM logo at far upper Left of screen; if you right click that, only useless options appear.
Now MM won't open at all, so I cannot send screen shot.
Re: Where has the title bar gone?
sorry, my mistake; I meant Title Bar, not Menu Bar. With my Windows 10, the Title Bar will not appear. And Without the Title Bar, I'm unable to change skins; but if MM is restarted, the skin changes (though it should not) and the Title Bar does appear.terrypin wrote:Wouldn't this be better in a fresh post?

So, nothing shows at the top except MM icon symbol and you cant' get to any of the top GUI menu controls; what version of MM?PDoyle wrote:I meant Title Bar, not Menu Bar.

Re: Where has the title bar gone?
After restarting Windows 10, MM starts fine; doesn't ask me to create a new local library; and is showing the Title bar. Everything seems to work; except Backup 6 which fails due to runtime vb script or something like that.MMFrLife wrote:So, nothing shows at the top except MM icon symbol and you cant' get to any of the top GUI menu controls; what version of MM?PDoyle wrote:I meant Title Bar, not Menu Bar.

how can I attach a screenshot to show Backup settings?
