Menu disappear after root password change

Hi, Sorry to disturb, I was seting up my first OPNsense and so far everything was ok(intefaces, brdges, vpn, ...), except that since I changed the root pwd (folowing all my other settings), I am able to login, but I do not have the left menu anymore : only the help menu...
Any help to help me in getting back the menu is welcome !:)
Thanks,
Fred

Hi Fred,
This is odd. Did you try a different browser? Can you provide a screenshot if this issue persists?
Cheers,
Franco

Hi Franco,
If it helps in understanding, GUI is in french, the appliance is in a remote location, and @ this stage I didnt do any reboot,
I tried different borwsers from different computer,
The funny thing is that when i loggin I can see the menu for half a second, then.... this
Thanks,
Fred

Hi Fred,
Ok, can you open this and set it to English to rule out a translation issue:
https://192.168.193.1/system_general.php
French works from here as far as I can test.
Can you do an update? Should also rule out issues with 16.7 as we are on 16.7.11 now.
Thanks so far,
Franco

Hi Franco,
ENglish didn't help,
When I click Click to upgrade, it just come back to the lobby without having D/L or installed any update (even if it see that there is 1 update avbailable).
Can you share to me the link for the user page as well as the password page?
Thanks,
Fred

Hi,
Fixed !
Not sure how yesterday I changed the Root password : from
https://192.168.193.1/system_usermanager_passwordmg.php
or
https://192.168.193.1/system_usermanager.php
... anyway folowing this I lost the menu...
but root was not in admins group (??). So I went to
https://192.168.193.1/system_usermanager.php
and just added root as admin and my menu came back...
Anyway, everything is back on the right track!
Tkx,
Fred

Uh, indeed, this seemed like a permission problem because the menu wasn't gone -- there simply wasn't any entries in it.
I don't know how this happened. Do you have any idea how to reproduce?
