Right click close to the menu bar and a window will drop down. Remove the check mark from menu bar. You can also hit F11 and go to full screen and it will be gone.

What program do you have to put the tabs at the top? Maybe there's a setting with that.

The menu bar can get stuck if you uninstall a toolbar extension while the bar is visible. You can try deleting the toolbar settings as shown here: Unhidable Menu Bar « QTTabBar

How to hide Menu Bar in Windows 7 - General
thanx BrightBlessings for your replay.
I have already applied all methods that are in that tutorial(Thanx to Brinks tutorial)
But it dint work and i think registry tweak is only for IE. Am i wrong?.
What program do you have to put the tabs at the top? Maybe there's a setting with that.
The Program is Clover. I dint find any setting related to that.
I've uninstalled it but problem is same.

I also thought that and i have uninstalled all explorer extension and apply default theme.
But it still got stuck.

I have found this tutorial on Ask.VG

remove Menu Bar by editing ShellStyle.dll??

Akshat,

You might see if running a sfc /scannow command may be able to help to restore any modified system files.

If not, then you could do a system restore using a restore point (if available) dated before you installed Clover to see if it may help.

Running sfc/scannow.

Can it be done by editing Shell Style?

I don't know, but it would depend on what unknown changes Clover made.

I'd say give the SFC scan a try first. It will attempt to restore any modified system files back to default, thus fixing ShellStyle.dll anyway.
