My title bar/whatever you want to call it is all orange now. I don't know how this happened, I must've pressed something, but I can't seem to get it back. I even tried resetting the settings back to default and nothing. I know there's something off, this isn't how it was a few hours ago. This is really bothering me quite a bit, so I hope there's a fix. I'm adding a screenshot for reference. Thank you for your help in advance.

Are you using firefox theme?


Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

To Enable SafeMode

  • You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the Shift key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
  • Or open the Help menu and click on the Restart with Add-ons Disabled... menu item while Firefox is running.

FirefoxSafeMode

Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode" Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win

If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.

Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: "Firefox > Quit Firefox"; Linux: "Firefox/File > Quit")

Thanks for the reply. I tried this and the only extensions I have are 2 from Norton and those don't do anything to the layout of my toolbars/title bar. I think the address bar was underneath my tabs before as well and I can't fix that either, so the whole top part being completely orange & that are my issues.

This could be a Persona (lightweight theme).

Did you look under Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance ?

Does starting Firefox in Safe Mode have any effect?

Thank you all for your help! I don't know if it was a theme, but last night I just uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox and it went back to normal. No idea what I did, but I guess I should have tried that first before asking - didn't think to do it, haha. Thank you all!
