Before the most recent change on my windows machines I was able to have the firefox button, url bar, and tabs all on one bar inside the windows 'aero' style window decoration.

Is this still possible to do? At the moment I can't seem to move the URL bar or options menu off of the toolbar and into the window decoration. If this is not possible can it be done with an add-on? This change has doubled screen real-estate required to display these.

  1. Install Classic Theme Restorer and restart Firefox when prompted.
  2. Open the Add-ons Manager (Ctrl+Shift+A; Mac: Command+Shift+A), then the Extensions category.
  3. Next to Classic Theme Restorer, click the Options button.
  4. On the Main tab, make sure "Movable back-forward button" is checked. You may also want to check "Hide urlbars stop & reload buttons" and "Combine stop & reload buttons". Close the options window when done.
  5. Right-click an empty area of the tab bar and choose Customize.
  6. Drag the Back/Forward, address bar and any other buttons you're interested in off the navigation toolbar and onto the tab bar.
  7. Drag all unwanted items off the navigation toolbar and onto the customization palette.
  8. Click the Exit Customize button in the lower right corner when done.
  9. In the Add-ons Manager, Extensions category, next to Classic Theme Restorer, click the Options button.
  10. On the Main tab, under General UI, check "Hide navigation toolbar". Close the options window when done.
