My tab bar is gone..I do not need to open previous tabs, but the tab bar is gone all together, I need to use it. I have tried settings and history and full page vs not full page view. I have bookmarks, info bar, address bar but no matter what I have tried I can not get my tab bar back. I almost always have 3-5 tabs open for work and switch back and forth now they are not showing. Please help...

Thank you

Try opening the Customise page by right-clicking on the 3 bar menu or a tool bar and selecting Customize Toolbar and pressing the button Restore Defaults in the bottom right corner.

Start Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration or userChrome.css is causing the problem.

  • switch to the DEFAULT theme: "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Themes
  • do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Troubleshoot Mode start window
