For the longest time my address bar's upside down triangle button(I am assuming it is called the location bar history or something) always showed my most visited websites in a large box with all of my sites. Now it still does the same thing but the window its shorter and now has a scroll bar on it, is there a way to revert or change this option back to the way I had it?

You should normally see about 12 items in the drop-down list. This is set via the browser.urlbar.maxRichResults pref that you can inspect and modify via the about:config page. If you see a lot less then you might have an extension or theme interfering.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox menu button/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox menu button/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

As long as I know, the title bar can not be elongated or enlarged either but as you search addresses increase, it also keeps on lengthening so, there's no way you can do away with a scroll bar in your history title bar! Thanks.....if it has helped you, please vote for it and help others to know about this!
