Need to restore extension icons to toolbar

FF updated to 150 and I tried to use the new VPN feature but couldn't find it. Looked up the directions and couldn't find where it was supposed to be. After trying the hamburger, more tools and customize toolbar I made the mistake to 'reset toolbar'. I lost my extension shortcuts and when I tried hamburger-more tools-customize toolbar they weren't there. I tried doing it from the extension page, no luck, then I tried to disable the extensions and reenable in hopes their icons would repopulate the toolbar, no luck. Is there a way to do this? It's like FF is blocking me from adding them from the customize toolbar page and the extensions page. Also, I never did find the FF VPN either after it updated to FF 150.

Thanks in advance!!

Hi,

The Firefox built-in VPN is offered in stages to users in the US, UK, Germany and France (starting with Firefox version 149), and in Canada starting with Firefox version 150. It may not be available to you yet, even if you’re in one of these locales, as the staged rollout takes time to reach everyone.

If the built-in VPN is available, you would see a VPN icon in the top-right corner of the toolbar, which opens a prompt to turn on the VPN. You would also need to sign in to a Mozilla account. For more information, see the Use built-in VPN in Firefox article.

If you wish, you can post your feedback about the Firefox built-in VPN to the Mozilla Connect thread.

This support article may help you to add your add-ons to the Firefox toolbar:
