how to keep tabs turned on ?

The file, view, history, bookmarks. I refreshed my computer and now those tabs in the top left corner won't stay on. They will come on if I hit the ALT key or the F10 key. But they won't stay on. Help

    Thanks for the tip- I am just now setting up a WIN7 setup from XP and noticed the same thing happening here that was all automated before when I was running XP. Figured it was an OPTION setting somewhere... I too am running FIREFOX and want to have around 10-tabs come up when I first turn on the computer.

  • I stumbled across the fix by dumb luck. I clicked on the view tab and the first thing on the drop down page was toolbars..I clicked on toolbars and another drop down page came down with menu bar and it was unchecked. So I checked it and all is well.:S Thanks for your time.
  • Right click on the space above the tabs, click on "Menu Bar". It's also possible that you're unknowingly running "Maximized", try clicking F11 button and see if the window downsizes.
  • Set up your tabs like you want
    Go to TOOLS
    Click on OPTIONS
    Click on GENERAL
    Click on USE CURRENT PAGE
    Then click on OKAY

    that works for me but is NOT guaranteed to work on older or newer versions of Firefox........
