It is enough to drive a person insane! Why would QB assume users would be happy to have the toolbar down the left side? It creates so much more screen clutter. Sometimes, logging off and then logging back in (as opposed to just closing QB and reopening if you have the "keep user logged in" setting checked) brings the top toolbar back, but I'm not sure if that's a coincidence. And what a colossal waste of time! I am in and out of 8 or 9 other QB files all day, and it never seems to happen to more than one at a time if that helps anyone.
Hello, @sscantlay.
Allow me to help share additional information about the toolbar in QuickBooks.
If you're using QuickBooks Desktop for Mac, Mac toolbar will always show at the top of the screen. However, if the icon bar is missing, you can try closing the toolbar and then reopen it. In addition, you may also follow the workarounds or steps provided above.
On the other hand, if you're using QuickBooks Desktop for Windows, you have the option to hide the icon bar or show the icon bar at the left or at the top of the QuickBooks homepage by clicking the View menu.
On the other hand, to learn more about customizing QuickBooks icon bar, you can read this article: Customize Your QuickBooks Icon Bar.
Stay in touch if you have any other questions about QuickBooks toolbar or icon bar, I'll be always here to help you. Have a great day ahead!
Brilliant! This problem persists even with 2019 Pro. Unchecking and then rechecking that box fixed it immediately.
