Menu & privacy notices

I am having two problems: 1) the Firefox Privacy notice tab keeps automatically opening a new window in the browser. Even when I close it, it reappears again.How to I stop that? 2) the main menu does not appear at top of the browser about the open tabs/windows. It only appears if I hit the F10 Key & then it disappears right away. How do make it be there whenever Firefox browser is open? thank you.

If it appears at startup or in new windows (Ctrl+n) it might have gotten added to your home page address list. You can edit that on the Options page. Please see:
