more options

How can i access the side bar ai, i use it quite often for classes to make sure i'm getting things right and use it to get some ideas on how to make my notes but my old laptop had it and now this one wont let me access it at all. I need that sidebar to help me with school and it wont let me access with it. The article you provide says no way to activate it or how to download it.

Hi Jennifer, on the Settings page, there is a checkbox for "Show sidebar" which enables the vertical button bar along the left edge of the browser (or right edge, if you prefer).

Settings page > General panel > Browsing Layout section > Show sidebar

On that button bar, toward the bottom the gear button should open a customization panel that lets you add the button for AI chatbots. Is that there/available?
