I've got a new SSD and have reinstalled Firefox as my browser. In the past I've had the address field on the left and the search field to its right. I can get the search field on the same level as the address field but have not been able to switch their locations.

I have attached a screen shot of that section of my browser home page.

I thank you for whatever suggestions or guidance anyone can give.

Not sure if this is the correct topic, but I have been using Firefox for over 20 years, and after the last update, there is an icon missing from my Firefox browser page. It's the "file" icon in the very upper left corner of the window that allows "new tab", "new window", etc. I'm still using windows10, on an ASUS PC, but never had the problem until just recently. I've restarted the computer, reloaded the window, nothing works to restore that icon/function. Thanks - Mike B

Hi Mozilla Community,

I am running Firefox on Windows 11 and I'm encountering a strange issue regarding the UI updates.

The Issue: My Firefox browser updates automatically to the latest version. However, my Default Profile is visually stuck on the old UI design. It does not reflect the recent interface changes associated with the update.

The Troubleshooting Context:

  • I have verified that the browser itself is technically updated (via Help > About Firefox).
  • The strange part: I have other Firefox profiles on this same machine. When I launch those profiles, they correctly display the new, updated UI.
  • This issue is isolated strictly to my main/default profile.

Has anyone experienced this mismatch where the version number is correct, but the UI fails to refresh on a specific profile? Is there a specific fix for this?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Running version 146.0.1 No new extensions. Recently, when I hit ctrl+b to bring up the bookmarks sidebar, it opens but doesn't display the bookmark correctly. (image #1) The sidebar opens, but everything is whited out. The same thing happens when I try to open the history sidebar, except that the urls kind of show up. (image #2). Also, when I'm on my homepage, there's a white line on the left side that I can't get rid off. (image #3) I also tried refreshing firefox, but that didn't do anything. Does anyone have an idea what may be causing this? Thanks

I like keeping my search bar clean. In addition to the Favorites star, now there is a "add tab to taskbar". On occasion (not sure what triggers it to appear) there is also a "Toggle reader view" icon as well. How can I control what symbols appear in my search bar. I only want what I need not what Firefox thinks I need. Dislike this feature.
