I have lost the menu bar "file", "bookmarks" etc from the top of the browser window. How do I get it back?

LORNA1979

When I turned my computer on and double clicked the icon for Firefox and it opened the window all the options that were available in the top of the window were gone. I can no longer click on the "bookmarks" button to view the drop down menu and choose which one I wish to open. I understand I can access this from next to the address bar but Everything else has also gone, File, History etc. Please tell me how to restore these as soon as possible. Thanks very much.
