I guess you've edited the toolbar. Right click a toolbar and choose "Customize
Toolbar...", then restore the default set.

Yep, that fixed it. Why is removing basic tools an option here? It never
would have even occurred to me that an app like this would have an editable
toolbar.

Huh? All applications with editable toolbar have the option. See Finder, Mail,
Preview, etc. Ask Apple for reason.

That was rather tautological; of course apps with an editable toolbar have an
editable toolbar. I repeat (in hopefully clearer language) that there is no
reason to think that a simple program like this that only performs a handful of
functions would have or need an editable toolbar, since no one ever needs to
remove one of its basic, core functions, and there are no optional onea to add
via editing the toolbar. Giving XLD an editable toolbar is effectively dead
code and definitely a useless "feature". Since it's fairly easy to
accidentally delete one of the basic features from the toolbar without
noticing, as happened to me, it's actually a *misfeature*, like building a
button onto your car dashboard that can make one of the wheels fly off for no
reason while you're driving.

People may want to customize a toolbar; e.g. move the extract button to the
left-most position. There is no way to disable only deleting feature. It is a
limitation of Apple's framework.

Hmm. So an editable toolbar is mandatory on applications now? I wonder if
there's a way to have XLD detect that one of its features is missing from the
toolbar and pop up an alert about it (one with a "don't show this again"
checkbox so it doesn't come back unless you change something else about the
toolbar). Seriously, I have been using Macs since before OS X existed, and it
never would have occurred to me that a one-trick pony app like this would have
an editable toolbar from which the most important button had been accidentally
removed. I was about ready to uninstall XLD and use something else.
