Hi oldman1881, in a recent version of Firefox (23 or 24, I can't remember), a change was made to the icon. Some users have reported that this caused the icon to disappear. By removing localstore.rdf, you restored the default set of icons.

By the way, by design, the icon that drops down the bookmark menu will be hidden if you re-enable the classic menu bar.

Can you clarify which icon you mean?

Is this the Bookmarks Toolbar or the Bookmarks Menu button icon on a toolbar to open a drop down list with the bookmarks or something else?

Note that you only see the Bookmarks Menu button when the menu bar is hidden (View > Toolbars).


You can check for problems caused by a corrupted localstore.rdf file if this is about toolbars or toolbar customization.
