I am unsure of what you want. You posted that you deleted the bar with Reply, Delete, Print, Save? Can you post a screenshot of what you see when you are viewing a message? Thank you.

Hi David,

Thanks for responding! I'm new to Thunderbird and also almost ignorant about computers so have no idea how to get a screen shot. I was trying to adjust something on a blank draft email page that comes up after clicking on New Message on my main Thunderbird page, the form with my email address at the top, a Subject line, and space for my message. While adjusting something at the top of that draft form, I accidentally deleted what I think was called a Menu Bar e.g. with Save, Print, Delete type of instructions. I now also cant bring up my Contact page to enter the Recipient, etc. So I really hope you can help to restore that Menu Bar!

Thanks, John

Ok, to restore the menu bar for composing, do this: - click 'new message' button - next, click alt key to display menu bar - now, click view>toolbars and tick 'composition toolbar

Where you mislead me, was in your example of 'reply, forward, etc' as they are NOT on the menu bar.

For screenshots, if you use windows, there is a nice, simple, free, utility at https://www.reasyze.com/

Hi David, That worked! Thanks so very very much for helping me in this!!! Thanks, John

You are very welcome.. :)
