Right click the Menu bar; select Customize at bottom of popup menu
Open Toolbars tab; select Worksheet Menu Bar
Click the Reset button to confirm you want to restore the menu bar to the
way it was when you first installed Excel
best wishes

Maybe resetting the worksheet menubar would be ok? You will lose any other
customized changes, though.

Tools|customize|Toolbars tab
select worksheet menu bar
click the reset button

"File" is on the Worksheet Menu Bar, not the taskbar.

Taskbar is a Windows function........the bar at bottom with "Start" at left
side.

Couple of ways to recover from this.

1. Tools>Customize>Commands

Select "Built in menus"

Drag "File" up to the appropriate spot on the worksheet menu bar.

2. Tools>Customize>Toolbars.

Select Worksheet Menu Bar and "Reset"

Note: 2. will reset any customizations you may have done to the worksheet menu
bar.
