How do I get this tool bar at the top?

You can try Windows > Workspace > Essential Classic 

Window>control will get you that window, and that window only; workspaces are collections of windows. If you get deep enough into illustrator you will probably end up making your own workspaces.

Control of line thickness also happens in window>stroke, along with a bunch of other stuff – the Control window only shows a few basic settings, the Stroke window lets you deal with a bunch of other qualities of how lines are drawn.

Unhide the menu bar

1. You can unhide the menu bar in Acrobat itself by pressing the “F9” key on Windows. Press the “Shift,” “Command” and “M” keys at the same time instead if you’re using a Mac.
2. You can also customize the layout, magnification and interface elements that appear when a user opens the PDF document from the Initial View tab.
