lost an information bar

I feel stupid, but... Usually, you have a bar at the top left of your computer, which includes history, bookmarks, tools and other stuff. I have lost it, and can't find how to get it back. I believe I turned it off to get more space on the screen of my laptop (11"6 Acer, win. 7, 3Gb of RAM) and never thought it could be hard to restore it. Any ideas? thank you for your help.

Do you mean in Internet Explorer? If so, press the F11 key to toggle full screen mode.

thanks, I just tried it.... but it made the other stuff, like the google bar disappear. Yes, I meant on IE, or more exactly on Firefox, my usual browser. It must be something like f11, but it did not work!

right-click on the left or right inside of the address bar and then click on "menu bar".

[papamama]

that is quite nice to have it again! thanks a lot.

Sure.
