Issue with the interface

Thanks.

@VectorStyler I forgot to mention that I saved workspaces in a directory on my DD which is in fact synchronized on an external server managed by my Institution. I don't know whether this has any impact?

Should not have any impact.

I haven't figured out a trigger for this, but I've been trying. Occasionally I will go back to VS and the UI will be in this state.
Video link below... (LOUD music warning: I'm sorry in advance for the music, I forgot my headphones were toggled in OBS):
https://1drv.ms/v/s!AuWHX0h5bAoRifY14BXgOVp8BGU-Pg?e=T61kp9Restoring using View>Workspaces>"Default Workspace" gets us back in business, so it's not like the defect from before where I had to clean out the WS folder. But perhaps that was a result of me closing the program after the issue occurs? (I'll try again later...)
This has happened twice so far and these UI issues always occur when I go back into VS after a break while it was running in the background. I lock my PC at night so my monitors will shut off and leave it running overnight, so maybe something awful occurs when my displays wake back up. Perhaps if I stop leaving it up when my displays go idle it will stop occurring?...

I can confirm when VS is closed with a "corrupt" interface without reloading the Default, it apparently saves itself as the new default. I followed @Pat's solution and had a WS saved in case which I used to get back the original state. Video: https://1drv.ms/v/s!AuWHX0h5bAoRifY4lt8pfV_Rsi3QjQ?e=WFdylB
Once again, this issue appeared again when I left the PC on idle (monitors off).

Can you save a workspace when VS is in this broken state, and send me the workspace file? I would like to replicate this.
Also: the detached context panel is not really a bug (it can be detached by dragging).
But the document tap showing at the bottom is a bug.
-
Over and over again... This time, VS didn't like me testing the Shape builder tool on a previously edited object. VS got "tangled" and I ended up with the same minimal interface. I downloaded a saved WS and had to redo it after closing and reopening the software. Again, the problem is to reproduce this issue. I hadn't thought of saving my last WS, better to do it.

@VectorStyler Still happening in 1.2.049
-
@B-Vs-V Somehow I will need to replicate this. Did this look similar to earlier screenshots?
-
@VectorStyler Yes, it does: no toolbox (nothing to the left of workspace), no context panel & much less panels.
