Hello, It may be possible to modify your userChome.css or userChome.js to force the findbar to appear on startup but I've not been able to do it myself. See here for more: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/937841 I think your best option will be to do it using an add-on. [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/find-toolbar-tweaks/ Find Toolbar Tweaks] has this feature. I hope this helps. Let me know if not.
