How to toggle back after previous view when using only command on vim?

I open multiple windows when using vim. Sometimes I want to only focus on one window for readability by using :only command or Ctrlw-W o shortcut. How do I get back to the multi split windows?

What is the use case of vim Ctrl+w s?
