OE6 "Windows"

It's called the Folders List and it can be accidentally closed by clicking
on the Close X.

Open OE | View | Layout | Select Folders List | Apply | OK

I don't know what the pincushion is.

shadoe,

Glad you got it.

When I close the Folders List, I don't get a pincushion.

Remember, if you click the Close X on Folders, this UNChecks it in View |
Layout and you have to select Folders List there again.

Keep having fun. :-)
