My Firefox home page doesn't look the same since I installed and then uninstalled "Inbox".

My home page used to show the Firefox logo (fox encirling the globe) with a Google search bar below. Now I just have the logo and a searchbar, but the search bar doesn't work. I enter a keyord, hit enter and nothing happens.

The only change I made was I inadvertently installed (and then uninstalled) "Inbox".

I loved my old standard, plain Firefox home page and I miss it terribly. Please help.

Thanks Cor-el. I followed your steps but couldn't find in-box tool bar in the list of add-ons.

Attached is a screen shot of what my Fire fox home page now looks like.

You can try to delete the file chromeappsstore.sqlite in the Firefox Profile Folder.

Deleted the specified file. No change in appearance of home page.

Is that search bar on the about:home page still not working after you deleted that file?
