I had to download an older Firefox to get my bookmarks button back.

In two steps i have watched Firefox destroying one of the most important tools for MINE browsing habit.

First the bookmark button was combined with bookmark menu and bookmark side panel, so when i pressed the bookmark button sometimes is opened panel, sometimes the menu and sometimes the RIGHT drop down menu. In the latest iteration of nightly the button looks strange and only opens a library popup... I have tried disabling all plugins. I have tried installing classic toolbar. I have tried looking this up on google... but nothing has worked for me yet.

I just want my normal bookmarks drop down button back so i can surf my sites with one hand on my mouse... without having to tap on the keyboard.

I would have loved to post some images for everyone's convenience but don't know how.

Well i tried to get some screenshots and had to reinstalled 27.01 and now the button is back in it's original functioning form... YAY...

So for me it is fixed, sorry for the inconvenience.

Just make sure to use each Firefox version with its own profile.
