Solution

You must switch into the frame which contains the element, before attempting to use it:

driver.switchTo().frame("titlebar");

OTHER TIPS

IWebElement frame = driver.FindElementByName("titlebar");
driver.SwitchTo().Frame(frame);

Then try to locate the required element..

Please use the following XPath value:

    driver.findElement(By.xpath("//a[@accesskey='r']")).click();
