Restore search bar

I am using 8.13. I upgraded from 8.10 because my search bar stopped appearing under the tool bar. The upgrade did not fix this.

How do I restore the search bar to the main interface? I looked throughout the options but could not find anything. I suspect I need to change a registry value but I don't want to guess which one.

Thank for the help.

You've inadvertently hidden it. Click the Layout button in the status line and then click Search Bar:Show

Click image for larger version

Then I suggest you go into to Preferences->Shortcuts and set Main window->Search bar to None
