I am not able to see my Status Bar at the bottom of the CLI. How can I enable it if it’s disabled inside my settings, and also, I do see it for some of my projects, but for some, I have to go to VS Code, open the project and enable live server from it

This is the bar that I am talking about. It is not visible on the cursor

Thanks! I got it working by enabling and disabling it from the View\>Appearance\>Status Bar but it should be enabled by default
