Chosen solution

There is usually a way to undo changes or at least some of them by using extensions or via other ways like custom style rules, either via a userChrome.css file or via the Stylish extension.


You can look at the Classic Theme Restorer extension to restore some functionality that was lost with the arrival of the Australis style in Firefox 29.

  • You can check out the settings of the CTR extension via its Options/Preferences button on the "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" page.
  • You can find extra toolbar buttons and more toolbar settings in Customize (3-bar Firefox menu button > Customize)

Why do you not want the updated version? Running old and out of date versions of Firefox leaves you open for attack by hackers, plus older versions are slow and buggy compared to modern ones.
