I have recently got a new work laptop and have imported my bookmarks and passwords. However, I am unable to get the bookmarks toolbar to show up? The usual way of enabling it to always show or only show on new tabs doesn't work and I have a message on the toolbar that says "For quick access, place your bookmarks here on the bookmarks toolbar. Manage Bookmarks..." But nothing works. Please can you assist as it is driving me nuts.

I just got a new PC. On my old Windows 10 PC, many add-ons add useful buttons, for example OneTab which adds a button that closes all tabs and compiles a list of what was there, or Zotero, which lets me send stuff online to my Zotero citation database.

Now on my new Windows 11 PC, even though those add ons are installed and technically functional, I can't find the buttons anywhere. I wanted all that stuff on my toolbar for a reason. All I can find are convoluted keyboard shortcuts. I don't want to use a bunch of stupid keyboard shortcuts when I'm supposed to be able to just push a button for the same functionality.

Where did all my buttons go and how do I put them back? No, they are not in the "customize toolbar" option, and I have checked the options menus for my most important add ons too.

The recent update has caused the font size, including tabs, to reduce to almost unreadable. I can barely use the browser now. What setting where do I use to correct this?

Please tell me whether I need to a)uninstall/reinstall Firefox OR if there is a setting somewhere that I need to use to correct this problem. I usually use Arial variations and need at least 14 for font size. My settings are always the same. My machine is a Lenovo ThinkPad and the OS is Windows 11. I have four bars at the top of the screen, File/Edit, below that tabs, below that the search bar, and below that bookmarks. Before yesterday everything was the correct size for my vision. Please tell me how to fix this. Thank you. Jody Gruber Alexandria VA

Hello there! I recently updated Firefox to 137.0.1. But the update doesn't automatically display the status bar when you hover over the bottom of the page. I had to resize Firefox to make it full screen to display the status bar properly. This makes it difficult for me to use Firefox. I'm pretty sure this is due to a version update. This problem occurred after I updated the Firefox browser, during which time my Windows system was not updated. Is there any solution? Or how can I download a previous version of the browser?

Recently my Browser was updated and a fairly broad sidebar apperared from nowhere

As an experienced user with Firefox i have always been happy with it - it is just the Browser

WHY DO YOU KEEP ADDING STUFF LIKE SIDEBAR? It is fairly broad with a settings flag at the bottom. I already knew where settings were in menu. Why do i need this broad panel having the effect of decreasing possible width to expand a page if needed.

To me, this is just playing about, copying other browsers that are garbage that's why we use Firefox isn't it. If you try find out how to turn off it becomes a ridiculous unnecessary exercise. If you want to add stuff like this it should be configurable like everything else and not just appear.

It is so irritating i absolutely hate stuff like this, people playing about not improving it. Making it worse. Why are half the users trying to do what i am? - get rid of it.

HOW DO I REMOVE THIS HIDEOUS BAR? PLEASE ADVISE. arwatkins52@gmail.com

If you keep this stuff up it will drive me and many others back to other browsers which is damned annoying.

I look forward to receivine your guidance.

I have gone through themes and it was no use at all. I could not even see the sidebar to select it to turn it off? No doubt for some other ludicrously complex reason? I just want a simple page to read the internet. Please help!!!!!

Where is the menu bar? I just got Samsung S9FE tablet. Getting around in Firefox without it is extremely cumbersome. I can see not having it on by default but no option to turn it on at all? That makes no sense. So, will it be resolved in future versions? I can't use firefox like this. Don't make me use Chrome or some other browser.
