I agree with Viorel that trying SSMS 22 is a good idea.

But else, did you try those small arrows at the end of the toolbar to the right? There you find Add and Remove Buttons.

If nothing helps, try installing the latest version (SQL Server Management Studio 22).

The current version can be uninstalled later.
