Search box disappeared!

 

The search box on my mt5 IDE no longer appears as in  the image. How can I get it back?

Either widen your window (if it is not already at maximum screen width), or customise the Toolbar and remove some tools to release some space.

If what proposed by Fernando doesn't work : What MT5 build ? What operating system ?

Removing things from the Toolbar worked but just wondering why it disappeared in the first place while I never edited the Toolbar.

Its version 5 build 3802

 
Another question, nowadays whenever I start the Mt4 IDE version 5 build 2403, I have to manually enable to show the Toolbar and the Navigator. If I close and open the IDE again I have to do this again. In short on start they are hidden. Is there a way I can make them stay there on restart like before?

Because there was not enough available space on the Toolbar for it.

A recent update added the Copilot icon to the toolbar (not sure which build added it). That could have been the reason.

Or you might have recently adjusted the windows DPI, or Zoom or something.

There is probably some corruption in the configuration file. You may need to delete it and recreate it.

Must be the update then.

Just use hotkeys. It's very comfortable.

I always work in full screen mode. After compilation (F7), I immediately press <Ctrl+T> to hide the toolbox.

More precisely, not me, but my subconscious. Because I have no control over this action and often I accidentally hide the toolbox before compilation is complete (faster than a quarter of a second)😄.

I prefer they stay visible at all times like before. I noticed it happens only on one broker's mt4 so some file could have corrupted on this specific terminal.
