Everytime I restart my PC and open firefox the window has reverted to some default configuration. The new tab button is gone, the forward and back buttons are on the right hand side (usually they are on the left), and the bookmarks window is gone. I can then "refresh firefox" to have it revert to the correct setup.

Is there a way to stop this from happening. I restart my PC often, it would be nice for firefox to not do this

Hi.

This is something we are aware of and are looking into. In the meantime, this should help:

  • Update to the latest version of Firefox Beta or Dev edition.
  • Right-click the toolbar, select the Customize toolbar option, and choose Restore defaults in the lower right corner of that menu.
  • If you cannot see the bookmark toolbar, right-click the toolbar, choose the Bookmarks toolbar, and select the Always Show option.

I hope this helps.
