Can't have both Menus and Workspace

I have two screen captures but it is no longer providing a way to upload

>>Are you saying the when you reset the Essentials Workspace all of your menus disappear?

You call it Essentials Workspace, I just call it Essentials but yes.

Hi Jim,

Both of your replies showed up, 5 minutes apart. Because you did both replies to @davescm, you have to go to his message and click “View All Replies” to see your two nested replies. It’s best to click the Blue Reply button by your original post. See this screen shot, then go to his post.

Hi Jim,

I apologize, but I did not see your earlier response come in two days after your first post.

I don’t understand what is happening — either from what you said or from your screen shots.

• When you go to Windows > Workspace and check your Workspace
  what is the name of that workspace?
  
  
• You lose the Menus and vice versa
  Menu visibility can be included in a saved Workspace. Which menus get hidden in which workspace?
  
  
• When you check Essentials you get menus but it unchecks your workspace and becomes floating and overlaps the image
  Is this what you are calling your Essential Workspace? Go to Window > Workspace > Reset Essentials. It’s been customized. Resetting it will dock it and put it back to its defaults.
  
  
  
• My real workspace is docked...
  Which workspace is your “real” workspace? Are you having any issues with it?

Is the only problem the one with the Essentials workspace? If so, resetting it will fix it. Otherwise, please clarify the issue, and I’ll try to watch for your answer.

I take it from the lack of responses, no one here knows how to fix this.

This is the first chance I've had to get back to this.  It's not clear how screenshots will help but here they are?

Hi

Set your workspace as you wish it to be, then Save your Workspace with the same name (Window menu). Switch to Essentials and Reset it. Does it work now to switch between them? If not, show screen shots.
