On my Thunderbird emails, the Attach option and the SEND button have disappeared. At the top of the window it says Write with a pen icon. Then there is the From; To; Subject boxes. Then there is the text toolbar from the Font across to the emoji icon.

There is nothing else! How do I get the Attach and Send buttons back?

Thank you David. Just pressing the Alt key did not work...I had to hold it down for a couple of seconds but everything is back to normal now which is fantastic.

But what a bizarre thing to happen!!!
