Hi, Sorry having issues : Note there is no such thing as Favourites in Firefox.

I have defaulted the bookmarks settings

If default then Bookmark Toolbar is off as well as the Menu Bar.

There is no icon for Bookmarks Toolbar. It is available 2 ways : Mouse to the top of the Browser to a empty spot and Right Click, Click Bookmark Toolbar ( Menu Bar if want it ). Or go to Customize --> Mouse to Bottom Left to Toolbars --> Turn it on https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/bookmarks-toolbar-display-favorite-websites

the dotted line box
No idea what that is.
