I'm using Delphi 11 and many time when I click the "Run without debugging" button, my program starts to execute. When I close my program, some Delphi IDE panels are missing. It looks like this:

This is my Delphi IDE version.

Is this a bug or a configuration? I can't find an option that controls this behavior. I can't make the missing panels show up again, and I have to restart the IDE.

    There's a known bug that makes panels go blank. It could be this one you are affected by. Have you tried to reapply the "Default Layout" configuration using the title bar controls? – Andreas Rejbrand Jan 16 '22 at 13:20

  • @AndreasRejbrand Yes I tried, but to no avail. – Fajela Tajkiya Jan 16 '22 at 13:38
  • @DalijaPrasnikar Thanks for the link! I don't know how other people can live with this bug. It almost happens every time to me. Think about it, whenever I run the program, I have to restart the IDE... – Fajela Tajkiya Jan 16 '22 at 13:39

    Not all people are equally affected. I have seen if few times, but most of the time IDE works fine for me. I know some people that have it every single time when they run debugger. It appears to be some timing issue. – Dalija Prasnikar Jan 16 '22 at 13:57

This is a known bug in Delphi 11. Fix for this issue will be released with 11.1 update.

I'm using the exact same version and had the same issue. I tried changing the configuration, but it didn't work. Eventually, I found this works for me -- right-click the Delphi exe, choose "Run as Administrator." If the panels are still missing, try: run as administrator - open project - compile all - build all - debug. Also, don't forget to set the project's Build Configurations to debug instead of release.

Just encountered this with a very fresh install of D11.3 Pro on Win10 Running Delphi as administrator and Randomly the IDE windows go blank after closing an app from debug mode - no amount of fiddling with the layouts or windows fixes anything other than a restart...
