With the upgrade to Firefox 23, you've changed the Firefox icon to a new flat design. It's horrible; I hate it; it looks awful. I want to change it back to the old swish looking 3D style icon. How do I do this please? I'm on Windows 7 64bit.

There is a whole lot to do to get the old firefox logo back, its not just replacing .png and .jpg files.

This page has .png files of old logo 128*128 works well:

Use this page to convert to .ico file:

Save the created icon to local computer.


Then download this and use to replace icon, you need to load your FF application, change appropriate icons, and save. FF can not be running when you save.

Also go to desktop and taskbar, right click icon, go to properties, and change icon.
