How can two icons, the 'add to taskbar' icon and the 'picture in a picture' icon, be removed from the address bar?
These icons appeared recently in my Firefox browser I can't remove them. The only recent changes included uninstalling SuperAntiSpyware after finding that Microsoft PC Manager is a better option, which has performed excellently without issues.
Additionally, a free VPN (Proton) was briefly used from the Firefox browser without installation, but after finding it complicated to set up, it was deleted. A few hours later, I noticed the two icons as the windows were misbehaving and they are causing a slowdown in the PC's performance. They do not seem to be add-ons or extensions.
How do I remove the icons and return to the previous performance?

Hello
Take a look at https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/discussions/blinking-picture-in-picture-icon/m-p/104633/highlight/true#M40555, and, another subject.
Hi, thank you for replying.
I changed the About:config setting for PIP to false and restarted Firefox. The PIP icon was gone but an icon to Toggle Reader view had replaced it.
I see don't understand about the Add to Taskbar icon. Should it be switched off in Taskbar?
