      I have tried downloading Opera all over again and starting over but I still have no menu/tab bar. I really need to be able to open multiple tabs and work back and forth between them. With no tab bar, I can only have one open at a time.

        Does Opera starts with no tab bar? if not, did you hit F11 by chance?

        What about address bar, navigation sidebar and other ' bars', do they appear normally?

          It opens without the "O" for the menu or the tabs. The address bar is fine and the bookmarks bar is fine. I haven't used any of the function keys. One day when I opened Opera, it was just gone and despite re-downloading Opera, it is still not there.

            Did you check with extensions disabled and with a clean profile folder? Any difference if you disable hardware acceleration in settings?

              @leocg None of that helped. I figured out how to access the menu with the alt key but still no tabs.

                Do you see anything where the menu and the tab bar should be?

                  That is, is it blank, or is it not even in Overa's window? Or is it off the screen?

                    An screen-shot may be helpful.

                          I can see it in your screenshot - there is text behind the icons there,
