Fresh download of 7.0.3.1 Writer has no file toolbar. It just has five vertical dots a the very top left corner.and then icons for Save, Print, etc
How do I enable the File toolbar?
Do you mean that you lost the menu bar?
You may have inadvertently enabled an alternate UI called Groupedbar Compact. You have two options through a Menu drop-down menu at the far right below the row of icons:
- enable Menu Bar
- revert to the traditional UI with
User Interface>Standard Toolbar
It is a good idea to select both items (in this order) in the menu to reset correctly everything.

Hello,
you can try (re-)starting LO in Safe Mode and see if that fixes your problem.
Choose Help - Restart in Safe Mode…
Start LibreOffice from command line with --safe-mode option
Start LibreOffice from LibreOffice (Safe Mode) start menu entry (Windows only)
ref. Safe Mode
Hope it helps.
There is one more point to add to my situation.
I have limited vision so I operate W10 in some dark Microsoft mode. Such dark modes are not well tested and may not paint what is expected.
I ended up reverting to V6.4.4 and my problems went away.
.
V7 is a bit new, I will wait until more are using it and discovering possible problems.
So I will close this thread.
