Welcome.

That's not all that uncommon and an exact search for "menu bar" should turn up the solution.

Craig,

I did search for "menu bar". As per solution there, I need to get into registry to change it back. But it is not possible as I am working on client machine.

Could you tell me any other way to get it back?

What does "working on client machine" mean, that you don't have permission to use regedit? If so, find someone that does and can do it for you, perhaps their help desk personnel. You could try a complete uninstall and reinstall of the client software but using regedit is far quicker and simpler.

Yes, I do not have any permission to do it myself. I also checked with people here and they are not in favor of working with registry to change this.
So, it seems only option for me is to ask them to un-install and install client again.

Silly. The uninstall is not a guaranteed solution but may work. Only regedit is the certain path and it is just a tool, not something to be feared. Good luck, though.
