On this page: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1247768 , responder states, "You can find items like "Take a Screenshot" and the bookmarks star in the "Page actions" drop-down list (3-dot icon at the right end of the location/address bar). You can right-click an item in the "Page actions" drop-down list to add its button to the location/address bar for easy access." However, when I click on the three dots at the end of the address bar, I see no "Page Actions" drop-down list.

I just don't understand how any of those would get me to putting the star back in the address bar.

Ahh, that is what you want to do - apparantly the star is missing (next to those three dots) ....

Well, I don't use/have a mouse, but have you tried what cor-el says in that thread :

"You can right-click an item in the "Page actions" drop-down list to add its button to the location/address bar for easy access. " ?

Hello ForAQuarter,

When you click on those three dots you won't see the words "Page Actions", but you should see items like "Bookmark this Page", "Copy Link", "Email Link", "Send Tab to Device", "Share" .....

If you don't see these items, then what do you see when you click on those dots  ?
