DNN site asking for IIS authentication when we try to edit home

A DNN technical support experience from a 3essentials employee.

Site was asking for IIS authentication when we try to edit home. On other other pages the links are not properly active.
when traced using procmon i got this in the logs.

I changed from Controlbar to Ribbonbar under DNN–host settings–other settings.
This fixed the issue from my end.

Thanks,
