Heres a screen shot of Firefox on my computer - http://i.imgur.com/meaTv.jpg http://i.imgur.com/meaTv.jpg http://i.imgur.com/meaTv.jpg of Everything at the top. No Bookmarks bar, nav bar, toolbars, nothing. I was trying to customize the layout and after I finished everything was gone. I right-click and everything is selected, it should be there, but its not. I went into customize and reset the layout to default but that didn't fix anything. I restarted my PC, that did nothing. And when I exit firefox it doesn't actually stop, firefox.exe is still running and I have to manually close it from the Windows Task Manager.

Chosen solution

Try the options to "Restoring the default toolbar set", and if that does not work to "Reset toolbars and controls" as shown here - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Back+and+forward+or+other+toolbar+items+are+missing

To restore the navigation toolbar and the bookmarks toolbar, click on the orange Firefox button, then in the Options sub-menu click on "Navigation Toolbar". Repeat this for the "Bookmarks Toolbar".

If you want the old style menus back, use the above process but this time click on "Menu Bar".

I've already tried restoring the default toolbar set, It didn't work. But starting it in safe mode and reseting it did the trick. Thank you.

I stopped using Firefox for this reason. Whenever I try to customize the layout, it removes everything and I'm left with 2 empty bars on the top.
