I upgraded from firefox 63.0.3 64bit to 64.0 and the 'Take a screenshot' link was missing. Restarted my PC and it was still missing. Had a coffee and it was still missing.

You can check the extensions.screenshots prefs on the about:config page to see if this screenshot feature is disabled.

  • extensions.screenshots.disabled = false

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I accept the risk!" to continue.
