Do you have your virtual Keyboard on? If so then turn it off… Cheers, Matze! ---

It may be off monitor. Are you on a Mac or PC? You could brute force it by trashing your prefs. ---

Look to the slider at the bottom of the project window, it’s most likely off screen. Also, changing screen res. might be an option. Trashing Prefs doesn’t solve this one. ---

Thank you Mashedmitten, you were right! The slider at the bottom ( in my case side slider) of the project window.I had to move side slider to down and there was my mixer 😃 But, why it was happened - i did not change resolution in my monitors, i only installed update.Before installation , when i pressed F3 - mixer was allways in front of all and now it somwhere underneath… Any ways thank you a lot for " reopen " my eyes! ---

Trashing Prefs doesn’t solve this one. bleh, silly me. You are right, mixers are not independent windows. So, the answer is to use the scroll bars to find them. Sorry about that, should have read for context and not just skim for “can’t find window”. ---
