Adobe Animate Missing Breadcrumb Bar

In every tutorial I'm seeing online, when you double click on a symbol, there will be a breadcrumb in the main window where you can click back up to the main scene. My version is not showing that at all (v20.5.1), the only way I can find to get back to the main scene is by opening the Scene Window. Am I missing a setting somewhere that reveals the breadcrumb bar?

    You know what? I ran an update and now the breadcrumbs are showing. I guess it was some kind of glitch with my installation. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    That's weird, it should be embedded with the stage window, I don't think there's an option to tear, disable or even hide it, even in full-screen mode. Try resseting your workspace by going to Window > Workspaces > Reset ("current workspace").

    You can also double click on an empty area when inside a symbol to go back to the main stage.

    Ok, the double click thing works to get back to th scene quickly, but I tried reseting the workspace and still no breadcrumbs. This is what my stage window looks like when I double click into a symbol:

    Kind of annoying.
