File Activity window doesn't display

The File Activity window will not open or display for me. 

 

Typically I had two ways of seeing this winodw:

1. When I FTP files to my web server using DW.

2. Click on the tiny icon that looks like a globe found at the bottom of the Files window.

 

Neither method will display the File Activity window.  When I mouse over the globe icon, the popup hint says, "Click here to see the File Activity window".  But when I click, the hint changes to say, "Refresh (F5)", which is the button to the left.

 

To be clear, I am NOT talking about the FTP Log.

Fixed.  The window was there, but for some reason it was off screen.  Somehow, maybe with Win 11, or a DW update, this winodw got way off below the bottom of my display.  When I clicked on the task thingy that displays all my app winodws, it was there.  It just wasn't displaying aywhere on my two displays.  Wth some finagling, I coaxed into view, where I can now see it.  Hurray!

Won't show for me no matter what. Can not get it back on screen. It's there off-screen Can see it when you mouse over DW icon on taskbar, but no matter what I can't get it back on screen.
