Open files missing from tool bar

I know I had this issue fixed but I had to reinstall due to a hard drive crash. I almost certainly found the answer here but I can't find it now. The open files tabs have disappeared from the toolbar section at the top of the page. I remember that the fix involved creating a new workspace when that happened, but I can't seem to make one that gets the tabs back.  I am currently using the default designer workspace.

File > Open... (Ctrl + O) or Open Recent. 

The Recent history list populates as files are opened & closed. If DW was just re-installed, the Recent history is empty.

 

Window > Toolbars > check all desired ones:  Document, Standard, Common.

 

Hope that helps.

Sorry I wasn't explicit enough. A the top, underneath the bottom toolbar, there used to be a row of tabs, one for each open file. You clicked on the tab and that file is brought into focus, or un-minimized. It was above the top page that I have open, and below the toolbar. Also, "Right click to customize your favorite objects" wasn't there. It has done this before the reinstall, and I had the correct workspace saved and it was in the dropdown all the way at the top right.

Adobe Browser Lab hasn't existed in over 13 years.  Which version of DW do you have?

 

Nobody should be using obsolete web software.  Too much has changed.  At a minimum, you should have a modern code editor that understands current code standards.  If not Dreamweaver, find something else.
