Description

October 9 evening check: A player reports that Scan and Repair restored the bar only until the next client exit. This is not a confirmed lasting fix.

Effect

Save layout settings before changing them. The reviewed replies contain no confirmed Blizzard fix.

How to reproduce it

  1. If the bar disappears, try the default layout after logging in again.
  2. HanzZolo reported that the default layout worked, but returning to the custom layout hid the bar again. This workaround has one report.
  3. Include the build, layout, steps and error text in a bug report.
