So, the problem is my volume in only fierfox became reaaaly low, idk why, then when trying to find a solution i was made aware of a volume icon, to understand that I do not have it. Then i searched for : System Preferences, Sound, Output and check "Show volume in menu bar", but i don't find system preference, nor tools, or About, or just Preferences anywhere, i am so very lost. the settings seams very limited, and i dont find anything in the toolbar. I use fierfox Version 117.0 on linux

sorry for potentially bad English.

Can you show us the issue, a screenshot would be very helpful. Are you referring to any of the icons in my screenshot? see screenshot What OS? What Desktop? X11 or Wayland? "System preferences not there..." How would Firefox affect your System preferences?
