Please get back in your seat and try to remain calm.  Thank you.Let's take this one step at a time.  Assuming your install went fine do the following...Command: -toolbar
Enter toolbar name or [ALL]: Standard
Enter an option [Show/Hide/Left/Right/Top/Bottom/Float] <Show>: except the defaultIf all goes according to plan the Standard toolbar should now appear on your screen.  Right-click on the toolbar and you'll get a list of all available toolbars.  Start picking the ones you want.  Set up your workspace and when done save this as a custom workspace under a name you'll recognize (ex. - MyWorkspace).If the above approach does not work then there is a chance something went awry with your install in which case refer to this article.>https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad/troubleshooting/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/Missing-toolbar-or-other-elements-in-AutoCAD.htmlIn the future please refrain from using all caps and a light color for your font.  All caps is the equivalent of shouting and a light colored font is difficult to read unless one is on their computer outside on a moonless night in the middle of the desert wearing sunglasses.Thanks again and have a sparkling day.
