How to restore the menu bar in Visual Studio Code

by

For Windows users:

For older versions (<1.54) of Visual Studio Code: Press Alt to make the menu visible temporarily. While the menu is visible go to the View menu and choose Appearance -> Show Menu Bar.

For newer versions see the following steps or if Alt does not work use Crtl + Shift + P for command pallete, type ‘menu’ and select View: Toggle Menu Bar

Alternativily open settings Ctrl+,, search for and change Window: Menu Bar Visibility to either classic or visible.

For macOS users:

If you are in Full-Screen mode you can either move the cursor to the top of the screen to see the menu, or you can exit Full-Screen using Ctrl+Cmd+F, or ⌃⌘F in alien’s script.
