There used to be a small toolbar (sorry, I don't know what it is officially called) for Screenshot Captor that appeared at the top of my screen when I opened Windows. It contained buttons for some basic screengrabs. It would retract into the screen edge when not in use, and I could make it appear with the cursor (rather like the auto hide function on the Windows toolbar). Today it is gone and I cannot make it reappear. What I have done: 1) Rebooted; 2) I have made sure that "Start with Windows" is checked, and unchecked it, restarted and checked it again, restarted, but the bar did not reappear. 3) Gone to the Help file, but no avail.

I am running Windows 11 Pro, Screenshot Captor 4.36.2.

I really like that toolbar and would like to get it back. Help, anyone. Thanks much.

The Quick Capture Bar is in it's own settings page:

Well, that was easy! Worked perfectly, thank you. What I don't know is how it got unchecked. I know I didn't do it. It was probably the same gremlins who disabled my microphone the other day. It took me about a half an hour to figure that one out.

Thanks again!

One of the buttons in the toolbar hides it and disables that setting... 8)

Ah! The button with the red "X." I often use the button next to it; I must have hit the X by accident. Thanks again!

Tip: You can also disable the X if you want to be sure not to hit by accident. Uncheck the highlighted checkbox in my screenshot.
