Internet Explorer problem, any help?

I use FF mostly but IE is faster for getting to the right download page, etc., so I use IE sometimes. I have a problem with the one I am using, first, can't figure out which version it is, right clicking on icon no help. The main problem however, is no file-edit line. If I get to a site where I want to print something, there is no file/edit line to use. Can't find any internet options box either. Anyone know how to get out of this conundrum? Thanks in advance. The only thing I can see is to go to MS IE page and install another one, but don't even know if that will work.

If you right click just below the blue line at the top you have a selection of bars. Select menu bar and I think you've cracked it.

Doesn't help when you have a black and white monitor 😛

Open IE

Menu Bar Click Help

Click About IE

That is your version.

The rest, I need to read.

(Don't click RHP help, like I just did)

That is the problem, no menu bar. No help. No clicky below the blue line, nada, zip. Any other ideas?

Try to right click just under the Drag bar
Tick the box Menu Bar?

Erm. Stick with FF?

FF is too slow sometimes, especially doing PDF downloads and such.
I figured it out anyway. I downloaded IE8 and had the same problem. Found out though, if I right click to the right of the tabs area, I get the toolbar menu, clicked menu got it back. Thanks for the advice everyone.

That's just not true. FF is perfectly capable at doing everything it should, better at most. Perhaps you're running an old version or perhaps your PC is just slow.

What do you do with a slow PC? Flower Box?
