"File" "Edit" & "View" plus all other menu items are missing from the toolbar.

did you have previous version of kmeleon? did you delete it before you installed .5?

what OS are you running? is it NT4?

I have exactly the same problem, using Win95, even with a first-time installation of K-meleon

what version of IE do you have? microsoft is really great (sarcasm) so to get some updated dlls, sometimes you have to install a new version of IE. I have 5.5 on my computer even though I never use it. I just installed it so I could get the dlls that come with it. to my knowlege there's no other way to get these dlls. (monopoly? what monopoly? microsoft doesn't use their dominance in the os market to push their browser at all!)

Brian,

Can you tell us exactly what is the cause and the files that are missing?

I had this problem with .4 but the workaround worked for me (rename/del rebarmenu.dll)

I tried this in .5 but it didn't work. I eventual got my menus by:
setting up a keyboard shortcut to the preferences menu (open up "accel.cfg" and add in a the line "CTRL W = ID_PREFERENCES", this makes Control-W a shortcut to the preferences)
then turning off the rebarmenu.dll plugin
re-start K-meleon and it should work (or at least it worked for me)

Thanx. Worked perfect for me too.

Yep, same problem, and this procedure worked for me as well.

Details: Windows 95B, Internet Explorer 3.02

Also, it may be interesting to note that I have ms's Visual Studio installed... I know that VS does wierd things to system dll's and the tlb's in the registry. Maybe that has something to do with it?

Hope that helps!

In Netscape6.1,I had a similar problem,and it was corrected by deleting Chrome in the Profile folder.This is in Windows/Application Data/Mozilla etc.I looked at K-meleon,and the similar folder had similar content,i.e. user-locales.rdf file.Why would this help beats me.Take it under advisement,the folder is rebuilt in Mozilla,and do not touch the Chrome folder in Program Files/K-meleon.You can always fish it out of the trash,if it does not help or harms things.This time,I do not think that it is Microsoft's fault.

This has nothing to do with the Chrome folder. The rebar menu uses new features that microsoft added to their common control library, but the only way to get the new common control library is to download the new version of IE. The reason you can see the menus by disabling rebarmenu is because kmeleon then uses normal, non-rebar menus, which don't need the new common control library.

No previous version of K-Meleon. Running MS Win 95 (4.00.950 and IE 4.0 (4.72.3612.1713).

Disabling the Rebar Menu plugin shows menus.

Sweet project. The options available in Preferences allow the user choose.

For people having this problem, try downloading and installing this Common Control Library update from MS:

http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/ieplatform/ie/comctrlx86.asp

Download the version for IE 5. Hopefully, that should fix your menu problems. Please let us know if that works.

It worked (with "50comupd.exe")
(OS: NT4 SP6a no Ie4 or later)
(note: worked wo this patch on my Win98 lite (=no IE)
