Modify Headers Addon- no minimize

I recently downloaded the "Addon Modify Headers 0.7.1.1" in order to add a header of my own choosing to view a page that cannot be viewed outside the United States.

However, for this particular header to function I have to be able to drag the Modify Headers screen to the appropriate browser page- but there is no 'minimize' function on the Addon screen, only the 'Close window' function! This means that I cannot drag the box at all from the Add-Ons Manager tab.

Is there any way I can solve this? Many thanks!

Instead of the Options button in the Add-ons Manager, use the Modify Headers icon on the add-on bar. If the icon isn't on the add-on bar, or the add-on bar isn't visible, see the following article.

You can also try opening a new window first (for example by holding down the Ctrl key and pressing N). You can then open the Add-ons Manager there (Ctrl+Shift+A), and in the Extensions category, click the Options button next to the Modify Headers entry.

Hi Gingerbead, thanks a lot for your advice! Unfortunately neither using the Modify Headers icon nor opening a new window first worked! I'll try installing the Add-on Bar and see if I get anywhere with that.
