I’ve tried restoring defaults; I’ve tried Safe Mode; I’ve looked at all the themes & Customize options; I’ve browsed about:config and tried anything that looked even remotely likely or modified; I've upgraded Firefox. NOTHING helps.

Hello,

Sometimes toolbars are missing because they are hidden. Visit this article to learn how to turn them back on (plus other customization tips!)

Did this fix the problem? Please report back to us!

Thank you.

Do you have that problem with a new Profile? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles#w_creating-a-profile

DO NOT use Choose Folder... button when using the Profile Manager.

Customize was the very first thing I tried — does nothing — the search bar isn;t even mentioned (which is why I posted the question)

I haven’t touched profiles at all

So, try a new Profile to see if it works better. You can always revert to the old Profile if the new Profile doesn't correct your missing Search Bar.
