Can no longer keep favourites side bar expanded in Safari 15

I recently updated my iMac to Safari 15. Up to this update I was able to keep my Favourites in the SideBar extended permanently to show all my favourites. With this update I now have to click Bookmarks in the side bar or under View select Show Favourites Bar, but it does not "hold" permanently.


Can anyone advise?


Thanks

Apple Support just figured this out for me. In Preferences -> General, "Safari opens with:" was set to "A New Window". We changed it to "All windows from last session". Now if I close Safari and re-open it, the sidebar comes back just the way I left it. I don't know if it matters but "New windows open with:" is set to "Same Page".
