I can't see any menu in my new installed VS2012 on Win7 x64 - visual-studio-2012

I just get a very strange issue about my new installed VS 2012.
As you see in the screen shots it was OK to see the menu under 'File' option in my VS 2010 but at the same place of VS 2012 I couldn't see the popup menu after click the 'File' option.
However, I could trigger the function in the menu by shortcut keys such as 'X' to exit and double 'Enter' to create a new project.
Besides this I also can't see any the context menu in the IDE by pressing right mouse button.
I have tried to re-install VS 2010 and 2012 times and times but the issue is never fixed.
Do you have any idea about this? Thanks.

Device manager does not work (open) after updating Android Studio to 2021.1.1

Android studio's device manager AVD manager works fine in old versions, but in 2021.1.1 version does not open!
Windows 10 and 11 tested
last version flutter
Intel
Sdk manager everything updated
could anyone help?
I still have the same problem with the Bumblebee version, but for now you can use the Search Everywhere feature (you can access "Search Everywhere" by pressing double shift) and type in
"Virtual Device Manager"
then it will works.
This is a temporary solution for now.
I had the same problem, found the solution to return the icon to the toolbar, where it's easy to use it.
I guess it happans to anyone who upgrades from prvious version.
The idea is just to replace the "old" device manager with the new device manager created in 2021.1.1.
Right click the right side of the top toolbar and click the "Customize Menues and toolbars.
In the "Menus and Toolbar" window expand "Main Toolbar"
Expand "Android.MainToolBarActionGroup"
Press the "+" button in the top and select "Add Action..."
In the "Choose Action To Add" windows , search for "Virtual Device manager", select it and press OK.
You will see the the new icon is added.
To make sure it's working you can press OK to close this window and return to Android Studio main screen.
Now, you should have 2 similar icons in the toolbar, only the bubbles will be different.
The old is called "Device manager"
The new one is called "Virtual Device Manager"
Make sure it really works and opens the new Device Manager.
Once it is working , you can go back to the toolbar manger and delete the old icon.
Folow setps 1-3 above
Locate the "Android.RunAndroidAvdManager" item, select it and delete it by pressing the "-" button in the top of the screen.
Close this window and return to main screen.
Step 1: Select FILE (on the top left)
Step 2: Select PROJECT STRUCTURE (<Ctrl + Alt + Shift + S> on Windows/Linux).
Step 3: Select MODULES on the left under Project Settings.
Step 4: Hit the plus (+) button.
Step 5: Add ANDROID and hit OK Button.
Now you can open Device Manager
I too met this problem temp solution this that which wrote Zaid Salam
My version Android Studio -> Bumblebee 2021.1.1 Patch 1
My OS -> macOS Monterey
If you cannot seem to be able to right-click the toolbar as Yahalom mentioned, go to View > Appearance and select Toolbar.
The toolbar will move and a big space will be available on the right to right-click.
As pointed out by the answer above, the update from an older version does not replace the button action correctly.
But to fix it for me (Android Studio on Linux), I had to edit the Navigation Bar Toolbar rather than the Main Toolbar. As the IntelliJ docs mention, the main toolbar is hidden by default.
(Could not comment on the original answer yet, so I had to create a separate response)

Can't see action tool bar on Android Studio

Everything was fine yesterday. But I opened a new Android Studio project and can't see the top action bar (With various button shortcuts). And I can't find an option to reenable it.
Need help ;_;
Go to View -> Appearance and check those specific toolbars are activated or not

Alt+Left/Right behaving strangely Android Studio

I'm told that Alt+Left/Right should navigate between the open tabs in Android Studio, but for some reason I get this kind of behavior when I do multiple tab movements:
After the 3rd/4th (not sure) use of the shortcut the focus goes away from the editor window to the tool window on the left and then the shortcut seems to switch between tabs in there.
I'm using Android Studio 3.4.2, Win 10.
Why is this happening and how can I avoid it?

Visual Studio 2012 is slow when selecting items in the solution explorer

After having installed "Visual Studio 2012 Update1" some new buttons have been added, but unfortunately Solution Explorer has become incredibly slow. All mouse events on it (click, right click, double-click, on either the toolbar or any item) requires 5-10 seconds before having an answer.
After having un-installed update1 speed returned normal(=immediate).
Maybe one possible cause is one of the new buttons added, maybe "Show on Code Map".
Unfortunately I can find no way to customize (remove buttons from) Solution Explorer Toolbar; there is no "Show on Code Map" extension installed.
I have no ideas on how to investigate further.
As at least one guy got the same problem (here) maybe someone has the solution or ideas on how to further investigate.
Thank you
Stefano
Using:
Microsoft Visual Studio Ultimate 2012
Version 11.0.51106.01 Update 1
UPDATE:
Microsoft released Visual Studio 2012 Update 2;
now, with Update 2 installed, everything has returned 'normal speed',
so this question can be considered closed/obsolete. :-)

Where is my "Recent Projects and Solutions" option?

I recently installed Visual Studio 2012, and I've been banging my head against my desk looking for missing options.
I use the Recent Projects and Solutions menu option (under the File menu) a lot in Visual Studio 2010, but don't have anything like that in Visual Studio 2012. However, my boss does, so I know there's something wrong with my install or an option I've missed.
I've casually looked through registry settings for anything like "Project" that exists in my 2010 settings but does not exist in my 2012 settings, and came up empty handed. Does anyone know how to fix this?
It looks like some part of the upgrade process just removed this menu option for me. Following nithins link to this question, I followed the instructions the author created to re-create the Recent Projects and Solutions menu item.
For posterity, those steps were (performed in Visual Studio 2012):
Under the Tools menu, click Customize...
Click the Commands tab.
Change the Menu bar selected option in the drop-down list to File.
Click Add New Menu.
Click Modify Selection, rename to Recent Projects and Solutions.
Under the Menu bar drop-down list, select File | Recent Projects and Solutions.
Click Add Command...
(The Add Command menu should appear here.)
Under Categories on the left-hand side, click File.
When the Commands list (on the right-hand side) refreshes, click Recent Project list, and click OK.
Click Close.
Happy project switching!
I had the exact same problem, but I had the sense that other menu items were missing as well.
What I did was go into Tools => Import & Export Settings, choose Reset all settings, and then select the same profile as when I installed Visual Studio. (General Development Settings.) That fixed the issue.
