I do not have any menu or toolbar items. I have the menu bar, it just doesn't have any thing in it. I also have the icon bar, it just doesn't have anything in it. Safe Mode didn't do anything, pressing alt doesn't do anything either. I can right click on the bars and get the enable/disable pop-up. They are all enabled.

Hello Mike.

Try running Firefox in safe mode to disable all extensions, themes and plugins to see if it's them that's causing the problem. If the problem goes away, then enable one of them at a time until it reappears, and you know which one it is that's causing it.

If safe mode doesn't fix it, then right-click your toolbar (white space), select "Customize..." and click "Restore default set".

Thanks, Safe mode did nothing I tried all the combinations and no change. I tried to customize, but the customize dialog had nothing in it either. It's like all the entry resources were lost.

Since this time, I restarted the computer and everything came back.

Very odd.

Thanks again.
