I can't switch modes. e.g. from Guided to Expert.

There is no top row showing modes above the menu.

 

Is there a way to activate that top row so I can switch or some other way to switch?  I see nothing in the documentation or help on this

Try changing your monitor resolution.

 

If that doesn't work, try this:

Restore default preferences
Preference settings control how Photoshop Elements Editor displays images, cursors, and transparencies, saves files, uses plug‑ins and scratch disks, and so on. If the application exhibits unexpected behavior, the preferences file could be damaged. You can restore all preferences to their defaults.

Note: Deleting the preferences file is an action that cannot be undone.

Do one of the following:

Press and hold Alt+Control+Shift (Mac: Option+Command+Shift) immediately after Photoshop Elements begins launching. Click Yes to delete the Adobe Photoshop Elements settings file.
Go to Edit > Preferences (Mac: Photoshop Elements > Preferences > General), click the Reset Preferences on next launch button, and then click OK. When you restart Adobe Photoshop Elements, all preferences are reset to default settings.
A new preferences file is created the next time you start Photoshop Elements Editor. For information on a specific preference option, search for the preference name in Help.

If that doesn't work, please post a screenshot of what you are seeing.

. . .  and what OS are you using?  If you are on Windows, do you have auto-hide task bar selected.  If so, try turning it off.
