On the 'menu bar / view / toolbars / there is a "Navigation Bar". I have never found an 'address bar'. Where is it ?

Chosen solution

The location bar (address bar) is positioned on the Navigation Toolbar where you also find the Google search bar.

If you do not see the location bar then check this:

Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"

  • Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
  • If missing items are in the toolbar palette then drag them back from the Customize window on the toolbar
  • If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up
