I am experiencing a weird scaling issue on one of my monitors with Firefox. The whole firefox window looks as if it's scaled to high resolution mode. Not just zoom of the content, but the whole window, including the title, toolbars, etc.

Note that only happens on ONE monitor (I've tried this on total 6 monitors now), and it happens only on one Firefox Profile. If I use a new profile, the issue is gone. However, if I copy the profile folder to the newly created profile, the issue comes back.

Here is a screenshot of the two windows opened at the same time on the same screen. Right window is normal, and the left window is the scaled up version.

I don't want to re-create my entire profile if I don't have to. Does anyone know what kind of setting/feature did this and how can I revert it? Since it does not happen on a different profile, and is replicable by copying the profile settings, it must be some kind of a firefox setting somewhere.

The bookmarks (ctrl B) no longer directly accessible

Hello there,

Before (an update perhaps?), it was possible to click on a star icon located in the toolbar and it'd open the bookmarks like the bookmarks1 screenshot. Now, it requires to first click on the sidebar thingy, which allows to access the icons on the far right, which includes the bookmarks icon in question.

There's also another icon for bookmarks that can be put directly in the toolbar (bookmarks2 pic), yes, but it doesn't show all the bookmarks right away, it's not the same

So the question is: how do I do to get the Ctrl B Icon/shortcut directly in the toolbar, like it was before? I don't want to be obligated to use the sidebar when I have plenty of space left in the standard toolbar..

Thanks in advance!

After update to 141.0.3(64bit), sidebar comes with waste space, as pink area in attached image.

It didn't shows in these years I'm using FF, I want to remove it but keep sidebar exist, like it was before. Where can I adjust it ?


If it's needed to be exist, why not put it on top of Sidebar ?

the last couple days my bottom bar has disappeared when im looking at you tubes or websites, so i can't change screens to check email, or access speaker selection... changing magnification doesn't help. escape key doesn't work to reduce size and see the bottom bar.. so annoying... is this windows trying to force me to give up on windows 10 or is it something i can solve on firefox.?.... im 78 so that tells you what level im at with solving this myself lol....

Accidentally removed extensions button. Want to add it back (for 3 add-ons within that button). Icon not in "customise toolbar"

After my bitwarden add-on failed me, I remembered ChatGPT helping me with this another time - but I got it wrong. I right clicked the extensions button (I have 3 add-ons falling under that button) and removed from tool bar, thinking I could then reinstall it and the Bitwarden issue would rectify.

Instead, the extension icon disappeared, and is nowhere to be located. ChatGPT wants to do some reconfiguring but surely there's a better way. I have looked in "customise toolbar" (ie, right click toolbar, click customise toolbar and look for the icon" - but the puzzle piece icon is not there.

Surely I have hidden the puzzle piece icon somehow and I need to do some sort of magic to make it reappear... Have never had this issue with Firefox previously.
