Where do I enter a web address?

more options

I have no address bar. All I can pull up is the 9 most frequently visited sites. The only way I can enter something besides my 9 most frequently visited sites is to close Mozilla and restart, when the original Mozilla search page shows up. Then I can use the search line to find an address via Google. Very frustrating. How do I get the address bar back, i.e. place to enter a direct web address, or even a search word?

Hello,

Go to Menu bar(Press F10 or Alt to unhide) go to View >> Toolbars and check the option Navigation Toolbar.

Or try go to View >> Toolbars >> Customize then look for your Navigation Toolbar if you find it just drag and drop it where you want.

Also you can try go to your profile and delete or rename the localstore.rdf, maybe you will need unhide the hidden files and folders.

Remember before you delete or rename the localstore.rdf file close the Firefox
