Does anyone have experienced having the Tools pane hidden (photo)?
It does not happen all the time, but it had happened a few time in the most recent version GIMP 2.10.34

Pocholo,

I don't see what you see upon opening GIMP 2.10.34 in Windows 10.
This is what I see:

Just a thought.
Is it possible that the theme is causing this issue?
Perhaps loading the default theme might change this?

What happens if you go to top menu > Windows > tick 'single layer mode'?
Then untick single layer mode of you like moving your toolbox around.

Wallace, you are correct. It depends on the theme you use. I just switched to the Metal theme, had it up, saw that there wasn't a toolbox and then GIMP crashed. The theme in my screenshot is MS-Windows and it presents the toolbox just fine.

Sorry for the late response, guts. I also think that Wallace is right. I switch themes and it all came back to normal. I also went to Preferrences> Tool Option and click on Reset Saved Tool Option to Default Values and fixed it. Thank you everyone for colaborations and help. :yes

if it happens again, you just have to put your mouse above the FG/BG color icon, and below the remaining tools (here the select tools on your screenshot) on the line where it's cut, click and drag it down
