Automatic hiding tabs bar and address bar

Firefox Browser appearance

Firefox on Windows 11 has suddenly and without my apparent action started automatically hiding the tab bar and the address bar to give all the vertical space to the current tab. I do not like this (I have big monitors and I want those bars always visible)

How do I turn this one and why did it turn on in the first place?

Thank you for having the Q&A facility.

Thank you! So simple yet so obscure and poorly documented!

I have the opposite problem. F11 no longer hides the tabs bar and address bar.
