During the last update, my pins and open tabs appeared on the left side sidebar. Now when I open a new tab there is no left sidebar. How do I get it back? In particular I could open my OUTLOOK Twice and had 2 sidebar tabs. One of these I would change to my "People" section and thus be able to add changes. Likewise I would keep 3 sidebar tabs open for weather (immediate Environment Canada Weather for my area, hurricane watches and isobar corrections/developments according to GMT.

So how do I get the sidebar back?

PS - I have a basic PDF of my screen through screen shoot but when I use 'Browse" it won't appear otherwise I would send you a picture of the problem.

Thank you for sharing your Firefox configuration. It shows that the test pilot experiment "Tab Center" is disabled. Was this what it looked like before?

https://testpilot.firefox.com/experiments/tab-center

I don't know if that will still work, but if it appears on the Add-ons page, you could try re-enabling it. Either:

  • Ctrl+Shift+a (Mac: Command+Shift+a)
  • "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
  • type or paste about:addons in the address bar and press Enter/Return

In the left column of the Add-ons page, click Extensions. Then look toward the bottom of the list on the right side for Tab Center and see if it can be enabled. If it's not on this list, are there any lists for Test Pilot shown in the left column?

Separate issue : Your system details show two versions of Shockwave Flash, which can cause major problems. So, please uninstall them.

Uninstaller : https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-windows.html

Then re-install the latest version, which is 27.0.0.130

You can download te latest version from here : https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/

Note : some 'extras' may be offered in the download.
