Missing Ribbon

[lbellino4]

Hello.

I was working AutoCAD 2016 most of the day with no issues and then had to close out of it, but when reopening it, I was missing my ribbon. Is there a way to restore this without have to restore the entire AutoCAD software from where it was when it was originally installed? I'm only asking because I have my "Express" alias commands and will have to redo them again if I have to do entire restore. So if I can restore just the ribbon, that would be very helpful. Thanks in advance.

Photos attached show a before and after of what my Ribbon used to look like and what it looks like now.

Since I can't delete this post, I did a little research and was able to restore by changing back to my workspace I had saved. Sorry for posting too quickly.

For other users that encounter the same problem you can type the command RIBBON at the command line and that starts the Ribbon. Hope this helps.

I did type RIBBON into command bar, and nothing happens.

Did you try changing workspaces like I did to see if that would work for you? What does your screen currently look like?
