Exactly what I said. Firefox opens in full screen mode with no toolbars whatsoever. Community advice on moving back from full screen does not work. Anything else tried following community folks with similar problems doesn't work either. I need the toolbars back and my bookmark list back. I can't get either one of them. I have been on Firefox for at least 10 years, and nothing like this has ever happened before. Please advise to xxxxxxxx@xxx.xxx. Thank you.

Hello,

Sometimes toolbars are missing because they are hidden, you just need to bring them back up. Visit this article to learn how to bring them back: Customize Firefox controls, buttons and toolbars. You can learn tips and tricks at the same time.

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: Command+Shift+F).

If you are in full screen mode then hover the mouse to the top of the screen to make the Navigation Toolbar and Tab bar appear.
Click the Maximize button (top right corner of the Navigation Toolbar) to leave full screen mode or right-click empty space on a toolbar and choose "Exit Full Screen Mode" or press the F11 key.
