Join nowI can see the dashboard but the navigation to the left and across the top are no longer visible. Using QB Online. Anyone having this issue?
I can help you get your navigation bar back , englishkat1.
QuickBooks Online has an option to hide the side navigation bar by clicking the three-lined menu at the top left of the screen. It will help you free up some space on your screen in case you need to see more data.
If pressing the 3 bars icon does not restore the left navigation menu, it could be that the stored data on your browser be the reason behind the missing bars in QuickBooks. To fix this, I recommend accessing your account using a private window. This prevents the browser from collecting cache files (cookies) and allows you to utilize QuickBooks with a fresh slate.
To do that, just press on the following keyboard shortcuts below:
If it works fine, go back to your regular browser and clear its cache. Web-based platforms like QuickBooks gather cache to save you time when loading repetitive data, but too much can create odd behavior and simply needs to be cleared.
