The render time and shape layer property looks corrupted.

My After Effects product looks weird and broken. The render time and shape layer property looks corrupted. Timeline, scripts, expressions, effects, presets were destroyed through the UX program control panel. Screenshot attached. Looks more like someone's joke. Does anyone know how to fix this error?

Hi there @Tatsiana L., it looks like your workspace just got messed up. Nothing is broken, all your other panels just got closed. This is easily fixed by resetting your workspace from the Window > Workspace menu. There's a command to reset the current workspace. 

Thanks,
