You have turned off the Tool Overlay by setting it to 'never' (or the update did that). Set it to any of the other options. I'm not entirely sure if the 'H' key works in Lightroom too, but in Lightroom Classic that is another way to circle through the overlays. P.S. do not confuse the tool overlay with the mask overlay.

I had this issue, I guess it reset the setting when an update was made to LR, but here is a simple Fix:

Go to> Tools> Tools Overlay> (Activate) Auto Show

 

😉 This worked for me...

Correction: it's a bit different in Lightroom than it is in Classic. I was typing my answer on my iPad, so I had to do it by memory, and that was wrong. Here's what to do: click on the three dots behind Show Overlay. Then check the 'Show pins and tools' option.
