Well, mtpaint does have an icon. I just did  tce-load -i mtpaint  which did not make wbar disappear.
Rebooting, removing mtpaint, "download + load" does however.
Could it be that, after the recent speed optimizations of tce-load,  wbar.sh  is sometimes called before the extension actually 'settled'?

No, desktop.sh is still called in the right place. I fetched mtpaint three times, wbar did not disappear.

I recently used Apps to onboot download flpicsee.tcz, and that caused the menu bar to disappear. Rebooting solved the problem.

hi - I think you do not have to reboot. Just go to the config and click the wbar button. Then close and the menu bar is back. Please try and post back. Thank you.
t(w)o be(ers) or not t(w)o be(ers) that is the question

beerstein is correct. Clicking the Apply button on tc-wbarconf restores the menu bar. No need to reboot.

WBar disappears after loading some extensions.
I guess there is not enough memory available,
using a virtual machine?

Nope. Bare metal. 2GB RAM. About 65 MB is used uncached after boot + 460 MB zRAM.
Note,  tce-load -i mtpaint  has different results compared to  Apps -> mtpaint -> Download + Load .

Tested in vm with tc 6.2 x86, download+load mtpaint/leafpad/lxtask/pcmanfm/xarchiver by apps,
wbar disappeared many times, at the moment there were two processes(ppid was the same) of wbar.sh.

Could you try this:  add "return 0" at the end of function "install" in tce-load?
(avoid to execute "exit 1" in the absence of an error)

or add these after "nohup wbar" in /usr/local/bin/wbar.sh:
    for _ in `seq 10`; do
        [ "`pidof wbar`" ] && break || sleep 0.01s
    done

Thanks, updated wbar.tcz uploaded for x86 and x86_64.

[ "$BOOTING" ] impacts the status code of function install,
it results in tce-load always executing "exit 1" in "download+load" mode.

$BOOTING is empty in a runtime run, and it does not affect install()'s exit code in any case. It's desktop.sh when the app does not have an icon, fixed, thanks.

Yeah, a shell function's exit status is that of the last command run.
