I loaded a bunch of extensions and add-ons into Firefox. Ever since, when I close and re-open Firefox, my Bookmark Tool Bar menu changes. They are all still there but their location on the tool bar menu changes. Example, I keep most used where they are visible at the front of the toolbar, but upon re-open, they are anywhere but visible, and likely near the bottom of the toolbar drop down box which is looooong.

There is also software like Advanced SystemCare (ASC) that can protect files in the Firefox profile folder and restore settings.

Solved... but not without unintended consequences. However, they were more easily corrected than the original problem! Kudos fredmcd-hotmail Next time however might want to explain how to "Start Firefox in Safe Mode", as this took me forever to figure out.
