How can I prevent the bookmarks bar to open at startup?

I already have the bookmarks bar unchecked under options, but it always opens automatically when I first start Firefox? Is there a way to stop this? Thank you.

Hey Copenhagen,.

Are you talking about the bookmarks toolbar? The one along the top of the screen? The checkmark comes bock when you restart Firefox?

Whatever it is, you should take a look at article in the Knowledge Base How to repair preferences that will not save . It may be that Firefox has struggle to write in the pref.js file.

If this does not work, you can also try to create a new profile.

Hope this helps!

  • How can I remove the bookmarks bar favicons?

    I've just updated to Firefox 29... and it disabled an add-on, I am using for some time (deiconizer bookmarks). Is there a way to remove ugly and unnecessary favicons in my bookmarks toolbar in order to make more room for real and functional bookmarks?

    You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder currently in use:

    • Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory: see file (Linux: open the directory;) Mac: View in the Finder)
    • Create the folder chrome (lowercase) in the .default < xxxxxxxx > profile folder if the folder does not exist.
    • Use a text editor such as Notepad to create a userChrome.css (new) file in this folder (the names are case-sensitive).
    • Paste the code in the userChrome.css file in the Editor window and make sure that the userChrome.css file starts with the default @namespace line.
    • Make sure that you select "All files" and not "text files" when you save the file via "save file as" in the text editor as userChrome.css.

    Otherwise, Windows can add a hidden .txt file extension, and you end up with a file not work userChrome.css.txt or userContent.css.txt.

  • How can I get the address bar does not redirect me?

    Since the recent update for Firefox 36.0.1, a URL typed on the address bar is now taking me to a website where I can buy this unused domain name (buydomains.com). This is not where I want to go. I have no intention to buy a domain name; I don't particularly appreciate receive advertising in response to my fault for typing. What I would like is a good, not old Error 404 to tell me that I looked for something that didn't exist. How can I prevent the address bar to send me off, in the arms of the advertiser, but get just a 404 instead of this message?

    Hello

    I have to fully understand and appreciate the magnificence of a 404 error. He immediately told you what you wanted to know - that the site is not found!

    What you see is where the registration and ownership of the site was passed to the registry which is owner of the domain. The site is located, it is just acting as an announcement of the person who is the owner of the URL so that they can sell or resell.

    The address bar works as it should - it displays the URL as requested - it's just not the preferred outcome. One way you can get around this is use a parental control addon and include the name of the registry in the watchlist (or edit list so that it is the only entrance). She stops at the page to display. (Link) is an example of the kind of addon, that you could use.

  • How can I prevent the Thunderbird goes directly to the next message after you delete that I read?

    How can I prevent the Thunderbird goes directly to the next message after you delete that I read? I want to return to the list of all incoming mail, so I can choose what email I open then. I could see something that I don't want to open at all, but the way it is set up right now, it opens the following email automatically.

    Thank you. I don't want to download an add-on, so I tried the messages pane, and I guess it will do. I used Thunderbird a few years ago and he used to have an option where it would go after deleting a message during the consultation in its own window. But I think I can live with this option. so thank you once again.

    One of the developers has been around the forum recently try to answer some of these questions then I quote the developer

    For the entire quote and useful links for corrections and explanations please see

    Each setting you see in a computer program you use requires work; when a developer wants to build something new or improve something, he or she has to go through each related (hidden) setting and test if it still works like before and do that on each platform Firefox runs on. That's Apple's Mac OSX, various flavours of Linux and various flavours of Windows, including Windows XP. This costs time, lots of it, and that amount grows exponentially with each setting that's added. This comes on top of our work to continuously fix, improve and innovate Firefox.
