Description Neva 2024-02-24 16:57:23 UTC
Description:
There used to be a bar at the bottom of the page that gave me a list of open spreadsheets.  I accidently clicked on something at the bottom of the page and the bar disappeared.  I can't get it back, even after rebooting.  The toolbars seem different too.

Actual Results:
That is just it.  I don't know.  I accidently clicked on  something at the bottom of the page.  Was trying to open a different document and I MIGHT have used the right click

Expected Results:
The bar at the bottom of the page disappeared.  


Reproducible: Always

I think it is an OS issue on the task bar, LibreOffice doesn't have a bar at the bottom with the recent files.

For OP, Windows provides the JumpList feature for the WDM task bar.

You can reestablish a JumpList for any of the LibreOffice (soffice.exe) module launchers by pinning them to the Windows Taskbar.

Also, the 6.4 release went End of Life November of 2020, you really should be working with more current release. 24.2 or 7.6 download links available here:

Install a more current release, reestablish the JumpList and see if that resolves your issue and if so change status to Not A Bug.
