Q: how do you make minimise buttons reappear?

In different apps/programs, the stoplight buttons disappear. How do you stop this from happening?

iMac (21.5-inch, Late 2013), OS X El Capitan (10.11.1)

Sounds like those apps are opening in Full Screen Mode, press Esc to go back to normal mode, quit the app and relaunch
and see if it reverrts back to normal screen mode.

You can read about several ways to enter & exit full screen mode in OS X El Capitan: Focus on apps in full screen or Split View.
