How can I add back server explorer and data sources and toolbox (especially toolbox) to the far left menu, in Visual Studio?

I am having difficulty docking toolbox with server explorer and data sources, in visual studio

If I do window..reset window layout, I get the toolbox where I want it. The reset position. With server explorer and data sources

enter image description here

But when I click toolbox on the far left, and it appears, and I drag it a bit, the toolbox option disappears from the far left and I can't get it back without doing window..reset

enter image description here

And I have the same problem with server explorer and data sources.

If I click them and drag the window, I can't the option back, and in fact I completely lose the menu on the far left

enter image description here

I have tried dragging toolbox around and different places appear for it to rest, but I can't make it go somewhere such that an option appears in the far left again, without having to do window..reset window layout.

To elaborate..

I can drag the toolbox and so that the far left arrow gets highlighted, and then release, but then it still doesn't appear as text in the far left

^^ See in the above pictures I don't get

toolbox appearing

Drag that window to the left or right side you will get the mark where you want to place it. than leave that window your window will be docked there.

EDITED:

Windows should be Dockable and after placing the window at your position you can unpin that window so, it can be collapsed when the mouse leave.
