When I click the 'Interactive SQL' button on my IBConsole, no window appears. It is listed when I then click the 'active windows' button, but selecting it and clicking 'Switch to' does nothing. Is there a known cause for this, or logging somewhere on my system?

  • are you perhaps having multiple screens or at least used one once? if so, it is possible the window exists, but somewhere far to the right outside view. try digging around in ibconsole config you can find [the most likely location for the config here](https://stackoverflow.com/a/29269196). ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯ hope it works. – Bagus Tesa Jun 02 '22 at 12:51
  • I found the config file to be damaged, will compare with other installations' config files. – Arjan Jun 03 '22 at 06:51

It turns out the problem was caused by a corrupted IBConsole.xml settings file, located in C:\Users\myname\AppData\Roaming\Embarcadero\InterBase
The cause is unknown to me, but I replaced the file with a colleague's copy, and after that my Interactive SQL window functioned as normal.
