I can't see the classic menus in Office. What should I do?
This is could be because
- The 32-bit or 64-bit edition installed by the user does not match the edition of Microsoft Office 2010.
- Classic Menu has been disabled for some reason
- Other add-ins are in conflict with Classic Menu.
The 32-bit or 64-bit edition installed by the user does not match the edition of Microsoft Office 2010.
