Hi! I've been using Firefox's own screenshot tool and I'm loving it. However, it seems missing now :( Already tried finding it on the 'Customize toolbar' interface to no avail., and it's not appearing either on the right-click context menu. I really like this feature 'cuz I can directly download my screenshots. Is there any other workaround to turn this feature on? Pls just bring it back thank you.

Make sure that Screenshots isn't disabled.

You can check these prefs on the about:config page (both should be false).

  • extensions.screenshots.disabled = false
  • screenshots.browser.component.enabled = false

Taking screenshots can also be disabled via a policy (see about:policies).

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. On the warning page, you can click "Accept the Risk and Continue" to open about:config.
