How do I put my Tab Strip up beside my Firefox button?

more options

I have one computer that is a Windows 7. On that computer my Tab Strip is beside my Firefox button, at the very top. Beside it I have added cut, copy, paste, and print icons. I just got a new computer and it is Windows 8. The Tap Strip is one level down, essentially taking up more space and leaving useless, empty space at the top. It also will not let me add any icons there. How can I get the new computer set up like the old one?

The Firefox button and tab bar appear on the same row when the window is maximized. If you want the same thing when the window size is normal ("restored"), install the following add-on.

The above is no longer needed in the upcoming Firefox 29. Anyone interested in removing the gap at the top in that version of Firefox should have a look at the following thread.
