Sidebar is hidden and won't show up with F9

Asked by Jan-decavele

Using pantheon-files on Freya.

I can't recall disabling the sidebar, perhaps by accident.
Pressing F9 won't bring it back. I even did a purge + reinstall of the package, which didn't work.

Worth noting that new bookmarks do show up in Nautilus, and the F9 shortcut does work there...

Maybe someone can point me to the location where these settings are saved, so I can change them manually.

Thank ypu Marek, I've got the sidebar back.
However, even on a clean install on another system, the F9 key is non reactive.
I guess this is a minor bug...

Hey cimpox, Marek's answer allowed me to bring the sidebar back.
However, the underlying bug still needs fixing (which will happen in due time)
