Just got a new laptop, and when opening FF this white bar appears on the browser above the tabs. How do I get rid of that? If I'm recalling correctly, the minimize, maximize, and close functions are present on the tab bar on my desktop FF browser. Screenshot attached

Make sure you run Firefox in desktop mode and not in tablet mode.

You can check whether you currently have enabled the Title bar in Firefox, look at the bottom of the Customize palette page.

Isn't that the frame of the Firefox program?

Yes? However, it's not present on my desktop's version. I'd provide a screenshot of that but I won't be at my desktop for some hours.
