SharePoint List Settings view vs Grid view
BamaDog27 then go to list settings and select the view and select the columns there to show in the view. I have noticed the same behaviour today as you experienced so I assume Microsoft have made some changes which haven't really worked.

BamaDog27 in grid view click the dropdown next to one of the column headers, select Column settings then Show/Hide columns and tick the checkbox next to each of the new columns.
No, you can't lock a list.

They are required fields and I have rows of data, so maybe it doesn't allow you to add required fields into a view until they have data? I will change them to not required, add data, and then see if I can add them to the view.
If I delete fields, is there a way to undelete them and recover the data that was in them?BamaDog27 "maybe it doesn't allow you to add required fields into a view until they have data". No that is not correct, whether or not a column is required has no impact on whether it is shown in a view. You just won't be able to save an item with a column that is required if that column doesn't have data.
If a column is deleted there is no way to recover the data that was in the rows in that column.
