How to restore Local folders in view

Hi, I have TB 115.2.3. I clicked an option (no idea where it was) "Hide Local Folders" from the left view with all accounts. Recently, I accidentally (unfortunate default shortcut A on the keyboard) moved some emails to my archive that I have set up in the Local folders. Unfortunately, I don't see an option anywhere to restore the visibility of the Local folders on the account tree. Even if I choose Go > Folder from the main menu and point to a local folder nothing happens!

Any idea how to restore the Local folder in view?

View/Folders, enable Folder Pane Header, then click the ... to unhide Local Folders.

Thanks sfhowes I would never have come across this, to look for another option, because it hides the option I am looking for. A new level of UX :)
