On Windows, after updating today, the top navigation tabs are completely gone (Chat, Cowork, Code). I previously had all 3 tabs, and now there are none. I already signed out and back in, and there are no other error messages shown in the app. 3) (Optional) Check for any error message (none shown)

TL;DR

The top navigation tabs in the Windows desktop app may have been removed or hidden due to a regression in version 1.4758.0, and a potential workaround could be to revert to a previous version or wait for a patch.

Guidance

• Verify that the issue persists after a full restart of the application and the system to rule out any temporary glitches.
• Check the application's settings or configuration files for any changes related to the top navigation tabs, as they might have been accidentally disabled or removed.
• If possible, try to reinstall the previous version of the application (if available) to confirm if the issue is indeed related to the latest update.
• Monitor the application's issue tracker and release notes for any updates or patches related to this regression.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue seems to be related to a regression in the application's UI rather than a code-specific problem.

Notes

The exact cause of the issue is unclear, and without more information about the application's internals or error logs, it's difficult to provide a definitive solution. The suggested steps are intended to help narrow down the problem and potentially find a temporary workaround.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Given the regression nature of the issue, waiting for a patch or reverting to a previous version (if possible) seems to be the most viable option until the problem is officially addressed.
