Extensions disappearing from toolbar

I only use a few extensions in Opera (v. 87.0.4390.45 under Windows 7). One of them is DuckDuckGo. Recently I noticed that it was just gone from the toolbar. I managed to do something--probably disabling it and re-enabling--that brought it back.

Then today it was the Evernote Web Clipper that was gone. As with DDG, it showed up in the Manage Extensions page as being installed, but it wasn't available. Weirdly, when I clicked the Remove button, the Evernote icon popped out on the toolbar with a dialogue asking if I really wanted to remove it!! So I removed it and reinstalled it. But its icon still doesn't appear in the toolbar. The right-click/context menu entry for Evernote Web Clipper is present, but it doesn't offer all the options of the toolbar extension icon.

Anything else I can try? I've used Opera for at least 30 years, and have preferred it over all other browsers. But messing up Evernote is a deal-breaker. What's going on?

@davidr It isn't in the extensions menu?

@leocg , yes it is there (Ctrl+Shift+E). Where it is missing is in the toolbar. (Which I just tried to upload a screenshot of, but I get a "Something went wrong while parsing server response" error message, so you'll have to take my word for that.) This extension, when you click its icon, runs an Evernote service to clip the current Web page (with various options) to an Evernote note. It has been working fine until it disappeared today.

@davidr Did you pin it to the toolbar?

I just installed it. I didn't see an option to pin it to the toolbar. And again, I've had it working for a couple of years, and it just suddenly disappeared.

If you click extensions button (wire cube) on toolbar, do you see your extension? If yes, then you can pin it there.

Sorry for the delay. Many thanks! That worked. I had no idea that option was there. I never did it before, and I've always had this extension on the toolbar. The Extensions page does not show the pinning option, and that was what appeared after I (re)installed the extension. So it feels like something changed without notice. IAC, it's working now, and all is well.
