Recently a "gear" icon has appeared on the bottom left of my screen while using Mozilla. It relates to moving the tabs. I don't want to do anything with my tabs. How can I get rid of the icon? The icon reduces the horizontal screen space available. I have a small laptop so this small amount of space is important.

Thanks for your help! Cindy

Hallo, ich benutze immer den aktuellen Firefox unter Debian Trixie. Ich habe jetzt das Problem das sich das Fenster meines Firefox nach einiger Zeit der Untätigkeit von selbst verkleinert. Sprich, wenn ich einen Button drücken möchte dann muss ich mit dem Mauszeiger eine Zeile höher drücken als der Button liegt. Meine Treiber sind alle aktuell und ich habe früher dieses Problem noch nie gehabt. Wäre euch für eine Hilfe dankbar. mfg Schorsch

During the week of March 7-13, 2026, upgrade(s) caused the size of my bookmarks, fonts and tabs to shrink to barely readable (see attachment) in the Firefox browser window on my Windows 11 PC. I've tried every internet base advice article. How do I increase the size of them?

Hello Mozilla Firefox Support,

I am experiencing an issue with my Firefox browser where my Firefox home page appears very blurry. This has raised some concerns for me about whether something may be wrong with my browser or if my Firefox security may have been compromised.

I would appreciate it if you could help look into this issue or provide guidance on what might be causing the blurry display on my home page. I want to make sure my browser is secure and functioning properly.

Please let me know if there are any troubleshooting steps I should follow to resolve this problem or to verify that my Firefox browser has not been compromised.

Thank you for your assistance.

The size of the slider is so tiny, it is extremely difficult to see let alone manipulate. Is there a setting which would allow a user to make them much wider, thereby easier to see and manipulate? Thanks

How do I get the full url line of where I am currently on the homepage back for the search line, or the old full browser line? Have been looking in settings and haven't located it.

About ready to leave firefox over it, and been here for years.

Thanks,

Michelle

In all webpages, including Firefox settings pages, text appears like poorly chosen Cleartype settings. This does NOT apply to the menu and Address bars, nor the drop down options in "Which topic best describes your question?" that appears when asking a question here. Troubleshooting mode does NOT solve this, however switching profiles DOES, so I imagine there is a setting responsible for this however I've reset all font-related settings I could find. I've attached a screenshot of the result on this page. Choosing alternative fonts does NOT solve this.

On my first PC, I have this specific sidebar icon in my toolbar. When I click it, the sidebar opens with Gemini ready to go. Perfect.

But on my second PC, that specific icon is nowhere to be found. Even when I go to "Customize Toolbar," it’s not in the list of available buttons. The only thing I can use is the generic "Sidebar" button, which is annoying because it doesn't open Gemini directly, it just opens the general sidebar and I have to click again.

I provided an image, where the first icon is what I want, but only second icon is available.
