I had everything set up so that from top to bottom, I had the menu bar, then the navigation bar, then my bookmarks, and then the stumbleupon toolbar. Ever since Firefox randomly updated itself this morning, the nav bar has swapped places with my bookmarks and stumble bars, and the Customize menu is refusing to save my changes and essentially forcing me to put everything back where it belongs every single time I open Firefox.

I havent downloaded or installed anything recently, and starting in safe mode puts them in the correct order, but then I have tabs on top again, and generally more problems than it fixed.

Since it is not happening in Safe Mode, please consider disabling some of your add ons to one by one to find which one might be causing this issue.

If it is not an add on: Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems

So far I've narrowed it down to none of those.

I haven't yet tried to refresh Firefox, because I'm not entirely sure if it'll save the links in my bookmarks toolbar or not. Or if I have a way to revert to before I did it if it does .

Apparently I've had this problem before, because I had most of that already done, but tweaking the .css file the rest of the way fixed it.

Thanks.
