I just updated the visual code on Ubuntu 20.04 and the search and compare view is no more visible.

enter image description here

Can anyone suggest how can I make it visible. I did google search but didn't get much help.

If anyone has run into this problem recently, there was a recent change (Version 14.0.0) that moved "Search & Compare" to the new "GitLens Inspect" section.

Rearranges the GitLens views for greater focus and productivity, including the new GitLens Inspect and moved some of our views from Source Control into either GitLens or GitLens Inspect.

    Is there any way to return this to the old position? There's extra clicks now to get into Search&Compare. – Kalnode Aug 09 '23 at 17:08

Open the command box using Ctrl + Shift + P and search for Compare Working Tree, select the first option (ie. GitLens: Compare Working Tree with...) After selecting this, it will start showing the SEARCH & COMPARE tab.
