So I saw that this was an issue some time ago, and honestly, I haven't been using the tool-bar in the past 6 months, but I need it now, and it will not appear.
Host: Windows 10E x64
VirtualBox 5.1.14R
Guest: Windows 10P x64
See screenshot:

No matter what I do, I can't get it to appear!!
Any tips?!

Re: Mini Tool Bar isn't viable?
- Searching for "Windows 10E x64" and "Windows 10P x64" returns no results. Can you explain it please?
- Pressing HostKey+Home within the guest should show the mini toolbar. Does it? And exclude the above shortcut from the list that scottgus1 asked you for.

"Pressing HostKey+Home within the guest should show the mini toolbar. Does it? " No, it does not.

- I'm not really sure what I'm supposed to see in that picture you uploaded. That there's no mini-toolbar? I would have believed you.
- With the VM shut down, right-click on the VM in the VirtualBox Manager. Select "Show Log...". Save the first one, ZIP it and attach it in your response (see the "Upload attachment" tab below the reply form).

Guys,
I figured it out. It was a weird default key-mapping setting with the HOME key on my logitech keyboard.

Re: [Solved] Mini Tool Bar isn't viable?
Thanks for posting the screenshot here, and great you pinned the problem down!
FWIW the guest is running in a window and there is no mini-toolbar in a windowed guest. Also, the menu bar in the guest window is missing. However, if I read your lower left screenshot correctly, you seem to have all the menu bar options turned on. This leads me to believe your guest is running in scaled mode, which is triggered on the guest View menu, Scaled Mode, or Hostkey-C.
