Keeping Bookmarks on Left Side of Start Up Page After Clsoing

I like to keep my bookmarks on the left side of the page. About a week or so ago I did a refresh on my FF due to another issue. So, after that was done I went through and looked at my settings and made the changes to get back to my previous choices. Now when I sign onto FF it opens up to a blank page, which I chose it to do, but my bookmarks are not on the left side. I have to click on my tool bar to put them there and also adjust the width of the size. Before I did the refresh the bookmarks would remain on the start page unless I had closed them before I signed off. I signed on using my wife's profile and the bookmarks remain on the start up "blank" page like they've always done. I did notice on her settings page that the option to always check to make sure FF was the default browser was "not" checked. I went back to my profile settings and the same box "was" checked for the FF default checking but it's shadowed out and I can't change it. I do have my "old" profile data saved if needed. How do I fix this issue where my bookmarks on the left side of the start up page "stays" that way when I close out and the next time I sign on they are still there?
