Cannot add shortcuts to Firefox home page and no rows are visible
Dear sir or madam,
Can you please help me with a deeply frustrating problem I'm having with Firefox? After the last update, the shortcuts on my FF homepage disappeared and I can't restore or rebuild them.
Under settings, the homepage is set to show two rows of shortcuts but none are visible. I changed it to show more rows, closed & restarted FF, but no shortcuts appear. I then changed it to no rows, closed & restarted FF, then set it back to two rows, closed & restarted FF - still no rows. I've tried starting FF in troubleshoot mode, but to no avail. Looking through the Community Forums, I can't find anything that directly relates to my problem. In case this may help, I've had this problem once or twice before but I'm afraid I can't remember how it was resolved or if it was anything I stumbled upon that fixed it.
The environment is FF version 136.0.2 (64-bit) on an Acer Aspire E5 PC running Windows 10 Home, 64-bit, version 22H2, last updated 16 March 2025.
If you can offer any suggestion how I can resolve this and stop me pulling my hair out (in my case, it's an endangered species!), my remaining hair and I will be eternally grateful.
Yours faithfully, Peter Palmer

In the Firefox homepage settings, there is a checkbox next to "Shortcuts". Is that checked?
Wesley, thank you for your reply.
Yes, it's set to on. Any other thoughts?
Kind regards, Peter
Following yesterday's update to 136.0.3 (64-bit), I re-tried the same steps and got the same result - no shortcuts on the homepage. Doesn't anyone have any suggestions how to fix this? Am I the only one with this problem?
