This techno dinosaur can't figure out why my toolbar, favorites list, security icon, etc. went away after installing Mozilla. Can't find any user friendly help links to get them back. I want my Yahoo Mail page back as my home page & can't figure out how to do that either. Isn't there some help link that will walk me through this step by step? And, just wondering.....how come all this information/data/configurations weren't just automatically installed along with Mozilla? Surely someone was aware this consequence would be confusing, annoying and baffling to many of us old farts????

Hi, yes they are around and easy to find..

The Toolbars are where they have always been. Mouse to the Top of the Browser and Right Click and turn it/them on. Or go to the 3 Bar Menu --> Customize --> mouse to the bottom left corner and turn them on.

There is no such think as Favourites List in Firefox. That is a Internet Explorer and Edge term. Turn the Menu Bar on as above, Drag the Library icon out or the Star with the pan under it or use the Bookmark Side Bar.

how come all this information/data/configurations weren't just automatically installed along with Mozilla? Surely someone was aware this consequence would be confusing, annoying and baffling to many of us old farts????

The answer to the above is under Help and take a Tour.

As for your Security Icon, you do not name what it was so can not help you with that. Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.
