Windows 10: Missing Tab On File Explorer

I am running Windows 10 version 1903. My file explorer is missing the Home tab on the ribbon. All I have is File, Computer, & View. The only thing changed is a new router installed yesterday & my Pc is set to WiFi now instead of being connected directly to the router. But I can't imagine why that would affect the File Explorer. I hope someone can help me with this.

Many Thanks,

:)
