How do I get the workspace window back?

Suddenly my workspace window has disappeared. How do I get it back? It is usually in the top right of the screen. My programming/editing, command and "files" windows are still fine, but I need to see my workspace, anybody know how to do this?

In the Home tab of the toolstrip, click on the arrow below Layout in the Environment section. You can select what desktop components are visible as well as saving and selecting custom layouts.

You can get back the default layout by:
desktop = com.mathworks.mde.desk.MLDesktop.getInstance;
desktop.restoreLayout('Default');

Hi I managed to restore the workspace but I still can't view the scrips and live scripts in the same workspace? What do I need to do to restore everything in the main window?

OK, but I think @Steven Lord's answer is preferred. Simply do
Home tab of tool ribbon -> Layout dropdown button -> select Default.
This is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks.
