Lost My "Output" Window

Question

I am sure I am using incorrect terminology, but hopefully you can grasp my meaning. I am working with Spyder python 2.7, and I have somehow lost my "output" window. I attached a screen shot. Formerly, there was a window, that, after having run my code, gave me the results of my code. How do I get this window back? I went to the view options, but had no such luck.

Answer 1

(Spyder dev here) You have two options to make your console back (that's the right name of what you called as output window :)

1. Go to the View Menu and there from to Windows and toolbars and select either Console or IPython console.

2. If this doesn't solve your problem, just open a Windows terminal (i.e. cmd.exe from the Start > Run Window menu) and in it run this comnmand:

   spyder --reset
   

   and then restart Spyder again. That should solve your problem for sure.
