My blue task/status bar at the bottom of the page is no longer visible. How do I turn that back on? The status bar feature under view does display it.

For some reason the blue status/task bar that would normally display at the bottom of the webpage (shows time, etc.) is no longer visible. I do not know how it got turned off and going to view-status bar simply enables a gray bar to display that says "done". I have searched using terms like "display task bar", etc and nothing comes up but view- status bar.

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

That is the Windows Taskbar and not part of Firefox. The Firefox Status Bar shows messages like Looking up and Waiting for and loading and Done.

If you do not see that Taskbar with Firefox closed then you may have hidden it. Try to move the mouse at the bottom and see if you can pull it up with the left mouse button pressed. If the Taskbar disappear if you open Firefox the check the Properties of the Taskbar to make sure that it is always visible.
