Windows 10: Missing folders within Windows Live Mail

After updates, folders in WLM disappear. I have restored them before but nothing is working this time. The solution Compact View - clicking on the green plus sign does not work. I cannot find WLM in file explorer or through %app....%


Please advise only for W 10 and WLM as of 2020. Thanks
