It depends on some Windows desktop setting which I don't remember ATM where it is (I'm mainly a Linux user). It has a name like "Hide menu accelerators" and it can be accessed through some screen or desktop configuration or other.

Sorry I can't be more clear

The question, though, is that it's a system wide setting so there's little you can do short of drawing the menu items yourself.

Here's how to find it on Win7:

Text says it's a user related setting. This might as well be of interest:

Yes, it is! Looks like there is a message you can send to the window to always show the accelerators. That's nice to know
