Then right-click the taskbar and see if 'Menu Bar' is checked. If not, click it in order to activate it again.

Googled and found this.

"

Start Internet Explorer
Press and release the Alt key on your keyboard
The menu bar will be visible, Click the View menu option
Click Toolbars
Click Menu Bar

That will do it. You can't move the menu bar above the new address bar, but at least it will be visible and usable from now forward. For those of you who just want quick access to the menu bar, but don't mind that it is missing, remember the Alt key trick to get the menu bar to appear when you need it."

See if that works.
