Removing GUI Areas
I have uploaded a pic of this IceDragon Firefox treatment, I want Highlights to start open and the word and menu access area there not be present, also I want the Open Menu dots on the right to not be there, also the superfluous gear still further on the right I want gone, thanks.

Actually, I had a problem with my email client with Firefox, so I picked up IceDragon from a reliable source, though it is an eyesore with the buttons and their coloration in particular being the essence of poo, though Firefox is not especially pretty either until it gets its pig lipstick smeared all over its pixels, after considering them both in the functional sense, Firefox is much better, the speed dial is finally where it should have been forever ago, I pulled out of Speed Dial some years ago because FVD speed dial was too onerous for my liking and there was not a suitable alternative that did not push something...so what this means is that I am going to cut bait with that and see about resolving all of the problems I am having with Firefox and leaving IceDragon a mostly derelict backup. So the issue with IceDragon highlights is that it is only placing recent highlights and that requires me to change privacy settings to make it do that, so they are marrying speed dial to pocket it seems and thats not what I want, I want Bookmark Highlights to not involve recent activity, which is what is happening over there, if I am wrong on that being the general point, thats still the way it worked on mine, testing in safe mode and with various options.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
