For example, making tabs on top like the "Show virtual libraries as tabs", which then creates tabs right below the top search bar.

Like this:

Also, is there a way to deselect all Views and have all columns and every single book in Calibre show? Seems like after installing View Manager and setting up 2 different views, I can only pick between those 2 Views (and see their respective columns) and not have all columns and all books showing.

I think you are supposed to create a 'Default' or Everything (all columns) view in addition to custom views

And you can always add a column temporarily, viz:

theducks is correct. If you want to see all columns, and use VM, create a view that shows all columns.

VM sets configured views. There is no concept in it or Calibre of 'un-setting' views. There is only applying new views.

VM does not have any GUI way to quick set views. But you can set keyboard shortcuts to display a view.

Personally, I have my preferred view set to the space bar and use it all the time.
