Jan 3, 2022 at 20:07 comment added Steffen Jaeschke Hello everybody. Seems there are many changes in Mathematica from version to version. Some are compatible or simple replacements. I usually try to give the completes answer possible. I am a simple Home user not an employee of Wolfram. I only explain what works for me. My answer is sustained by Mr. Lichtblau above.
Jan 3, 2022 at 1:41 comment added Michael @SteffenJaeschke I couldn't get any of these to get the "Show Steps" button to show up in Mathematica 12.0, but I'm trying to Solve an algebraic equation, not a differential one.

more targeted output
Jan 18, 2012 at 16:34 comment added user21 @murray, most likely the steps shown is not what is going on in Mathematica.
Jan 18, 2012 at 16:21 comment added murray Note that within the current version of Mathematica, you can directly query Wolfram|Alpha (putting an "=" at the beginning of the Input cell, and then clicking the "Show Steps" button on the result returned). But I don't think we have any way of knowing whether the steps shown in the Wolfram|Alpha output are what goes on when you directly let the Mathematica kernel evaluate the derivative.

Added example.
Jan 18, 2012 at 12:06 comment added Cydonia7 I know this but my question is about Mathematica not Wolfram Alpha. I'm looking for something to see the steps of functions in Mathematica using either a feature or another function.
