Finder stopped functioning normally 😑

Just randomly my finder changed its form into one of those finders when you connect NTFS hard drives. And opens each folder in a new window, sidebar is gone and it's unusable this way.


When I hold on the finder icon, drag up and open a specific folder like downloads, it works fine. But when I click on the finder icon on the dock, it opens up in this messed up form. I attached a picture of it.


I restarted my laptop and forced stopped finder and they didn't work.


I'm using M1 MacBook Pro on macOS Monterey 12.4

Hi, when you're on the finder window, go to "View" on the top bar.

There you should find the "show toolbar" option.

Hopefully this helps!
