Playback adjustments
I don't have the playback adjusting tools with the six dots. Only parts and mixer on the top of the page. What can I do?

Try pressing [Ctrl] - F11

Thanks. But nothing happens.
I can make mine disappear by moving it below the bottom of the screen. If I move it off the docked position, exit MuS, and restart, it appears in the same position I left it. So I'm'a guess that you inadvertently moved it below the bottom of the screen and dropped it there. and now it's stuck there.
I don't know how to "pull it back up" if it's stuck there as I assume. Anybody else?
Oh, and Ctrl+F11 has no effect on my MuS either. I don't see that it is an assigned shortcut but F11 alone toggles between Full Screen and normal mode. How would that affect the Play Panel?

I thought [Ctrl] F11 was standard behavior but it seems likely that I added it to my shortcuts, in which case that might be a method to find or restore the Playback toolbar.
What about View >Toolbars >Playback controls? If that doesn't work then your off-the-screen hypothesis is likely and it might take hacking the file that saves setting to get it back.

underquark: If you have it set as a shortcut, you might be able to identify the command in the file shortcuts.xml. Mine is at C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\MuseScore\MuseScore4\.
I can't find a particular file that saves settings. Do you know what file that is? Or where it is? I've looked in C:\Program Files\ and C:\ProgramData\ and C:\\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\. I assume it's either .INI or .JSON. There are NONE of the former, but there are lots of the latter. However, they all seem to be quite specific about storing these values or those (e.g., shortcuts or sessions). None of them have general settings for the application and a solid majority of mine are simply empty, containing only the opening and the closing square brackets.

Oh dear, I wonder if it's C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\MuseScore\MuseScore4\logs\dumps\settings.dat. If so, it's a binary file and cannot be easily read/edited.

I found a file with settings which has a UI State file inside a zipped Workspace file, but I don't know how to change anything with a subtle and predictable effect. Deleting it does reset the Playback toolbar, but what about going to the menu and selecting View >Restore the default layout, though?

At last I got succes! View menu-settings-shortcuts. I chose ,,p". Now it works by pressing the p. Thanks for the shortcut idea.
