Navigation buttons like back, home, bookmarks and reload are missing

Šis straipsnis nebeatnaujinamas, tad jo turinys gali būti pasenęs.

The Navigation Toolbar contains the Back, Forward and other navigation buttons along with the Location Bar and Search Bar. If these or other toolbar items are missing, this article will show you how to restore them.

The latest version of Firefox has been improved to prevent this issue from happening in the first place. Please update to the latest version of Firefox.

The Forward button is only shown when necessary

In old versions of Firefox, the Forward button was always visible. If there wasn't a page to go forward to, the button was grayed out (inactive). Now, instead of showing a Forward button that doesn't do anything when you click it, the Forward button is hidden until you have a page to travel forward to.
