when I updated Firefox, I lost my forward/back arrows, plus my house icon (home),plus I lost the ability to show tool bar on the top row without having to press the 'alt' button.

This kind of disruption just discourages people updating your software!

Press F10 or tap the Alt key to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.

Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"

  • If items are missing then open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
  • If a missing item is in the toolbar palette then drag it back from the Customize window on the toolbar
  • If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up.
