OK hate it! Didnt you learn from Windows 8? How do I switch back?

I hate the update. I have no desire to re-learn simple tasks like bookmarking and restoring previous sessions every time someone gets a brain fart. Windows 8 is an example of the failure you just copied from them. Why not work on fixing bugs and slowness and the fact that Firefox cant even remember my form data?

Im looking for stable and simple and you are creating the opposite. Im not opposed to learning new things...I started in FORTRAN after all... but this is just nonsense of moving buttons for no benefit at all.

How do I easily switch back to the old style? Or perhaps its time I learn a newer simpler system. Firefox is now Windows 8. That must feel good?

The reasons for this change are described elsewhere, so in the interest of time, I'll skip that part.

This is the article you need. It should have been listed on the introductory tour, but in case that didn't run normally... It's not on the tour, it's in the FAQ.
