How do you hide or show the address bar in IE?

Question

My baby was banging on the keyboard while I wasn't looking and now my internet explorer address bar is auto-hiding. I googled it and it says to right click and check "address bar" but all it says it "menu bar, links, status bar" then "lock the toolbar, use large icons and customize command bar". I can't check the version of IE because the menu that usually has "file, view, help, etc" on it is also missing and I can't remember the "alt + whatever" for help. So how do I un-auto-hide the address bar and show the "file" bar?

Answer 1

you're probably on IE 7. right click the tabs area and see if menu bar is checked. you'll be able to go from there.

Answer 2

attempt pressing the 'F11' key on you keyboard. F11 ameliorations your internet explorer browser into something like a "finished-demonstrate screen" mode, and you purely could press F11 to alter it back.
