Missing left-hand toolbar in Photoshop

I've tried tab, F, and Window--Tool Presets.  Any other suggestions?

No luck?  Just went into full screen mode.  gener7‌


What happens if you go to the Window menu and uncheck Application Frame?  (It's way at the bottom.)

If no luck, Window menu > Workspace > Reset Workspace

Sometimes my toolbar disappears - when I check the window/tools menu it is checked as if its actively displayed but its nowhere to be found.  To fix this issue I uncheck tools and then recheck it.

Save what you're working on and restart the program. Worked for me

I went to the dropdown menu to choose a different window because I lost my left tool bar in the Essentials window. If you click the dropdown, you can select "Reset Essentials", and it reappeared for me!

Oh that must be what you meant by Window---Tool Presets. Try resetting your Photoshop preferences.... Preferences in Photoshop
