Firefox opens up with no address bar,bookmarks,etc. It also starts up as a white screen slowly turning black.

As my title suggests every time I open up my firefox the address bar and all doesn't appear on the top along with it starts off white followed by a small black square until the entire area of the browser is blackened. Any help would be appreciated!

I solved my problem. When I went to try to reinstall firefox it had an instance running so killing the process ended up restoring everything to normal.

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: Command+Shift+F).

If you are in full screen mode then hover the mouse to the top of the screen to make the Navigation Toolbar and Tab bar appear.
Click the Maximize button (top right corner of the Navigation Toolbar) to leave full screen mode or right-click empty space on a toolbar and choose "Exit Full Screen Mode" or press the F11 key.


You can use one of these to set which toolbars to show.

  • Firefox menu button > Customize > Show/Hide Toolbars
  • View > Toolbars (press F10 to show the Menu bar)
  • Right-click empty toolbar area
