Re posting this questions so users can once again have a place where they can click the "I have this problem too" button.

Firefox used to have Back, Forward, Refresh, Home. Chrome has Back, Forward, Refresh, Home. Opera has Back, Forward, Refresh, Home. Safari used to have Back, Forward, Refresh, Home. IE used to be able to be customized to have Back, Forward, Refresh, Home.

I think many will agree that a significant number of users grew up with Back, Forward, Refresh, Home and prefer Back, Forward, Refresh, Home. Or at least would like the option to move the Refresh Button to another location.

I think some people would also agree with me when I say a user with poor motor skills has a 33.333% chance of pressing the down arrow of the address box or the refresh button or the search box. But if it was a button they would have a much better experience. And if they could move it to where they are accustomed to it being in their old browser, that would be even better.

This forum is for user support questions and answers. This topic has been discussed many times over the past few months and "solutions" have been posted many times, too. Pressing the "I have this problem too" button does nothing to restore the ability to customize the Refresh button as was previously possible.

The correct place to provide feedback to Mozilla about the Refresh button and other issues is here - https://input.mozilla.org/en-US/feedback
