Hi RickAce

Could you please start a new thread for your question?

Then you can provide more information like your operating system and installed extensions and installed plugins.

In case of crashes also please add some recent crash IDs that you can find on the about:crashes page and that start with a "bp-" prefix


You can check for problems with the files that store the preferences.

Delete a possible user.js file and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename (or delete) the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in the current Firefox release.

No, there are no plans to simply undo years worth of work. If you have any specific suggestions for improvement, you can click the ≡ Menu Button, then the Question Mark symbol, then choose Submit Feedback.

On my Windows 8 machine Firefox 29 (puke) no longer remembers my "Customize" icon settings ~ every time I close down Firefox and restart they all have disappeared. POS.

Whomever approved this radical of a change on the user experience without a nary of warning should be TERMINATED. This will go down in software history's top ten "Hall-Of-Shame"!!!
