Why doesn't the url for a page not show when I open a 2nd firefox window?

Whenever I open another Firefox window, the address bar is blank. If I type in an address, it'll navigate to the site but all subsequent sites will not be reflected in the address bar.

Also, why is there an orange "Firefox pull down menu" always on these secondary windows?

Does the problem occur when you run in Firefox Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode? If not, then see the Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems article for help finding the cause of the problem.

On the orange Firefox "pull down menu" menu, do you mean the Firefox Button that replaces the Menu Bar (at the top left of each Firefox window) or something else?

I'm not running safe mode when the problem occurs and yes, I'm referring to the Firefox Button. It only appears when I open multiple windows.

I meant to try running in "Firefox Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode", which disables all extensions and uses the default theme, to see if the problem goes away. Read the Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems article.

The problem did go away when running in safe mode. Do you think it's one of my add-ons causing the problem?
