What is the version of Internet Explorer installed on your computer?
In Internet Explorer go to Help -> About Internet Explorer.
P.S. Please, don’t say that you are not using Internet Explorer. This is irrelevant. Skype depends on Internet Explorer.

Try this:

Go to Windows Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> Right click on Command Prompt, select 'Run as administrator'.


C:\Windows\System32>

If this is not the case, then in the Command Prompt type: cd c:\windows\system32 and press Enter.

Type this and then press Enter:

regsvr32 jscript.dll

Next type this and press Enter:

regsvr32 jscript9.dll

After each Enter you should receive a message saying that DllRegisterServer in XXX.dll succeeded.

Reboot your computer.

Make now the test showing if your Internet Explorer can execute JavaScript.

Open in your Internet Explorer (no other browser but only IE) this page:

Click on the “Simply Click This Button” button and watch the response.

Re: Menu bar missing

Hi G4pilut!

Umm, I'm having the same issue after downloading the new version.  I tried what you advised but it didn't work for me.  I must have a different version or something.  It said microsoft Windows version 6.1.7600 on the black screen if that helps.  Thanks for any help you can give.

Re: Menu bar missing

What black screen are you referring to?  The problem being discussed in this thread usually manifests itself with a blank blue screen when trying to signin.  Is this what you're seeing?

Re: Menu bar missing

YES!!!!  The black screen I was referring to was the one where you were typing the commands that were listed.
