I have reset Firefox and now I've lost the Favorites and the custom toolbar.

I can't restore my custom toolbar. Got back bookmarks by following the instructions found. I can not understand how to restore the toolbar... I go to the "Troubleshooting" information and I click on the "view files", but the only 'local' in my opinion, is not dated before I reset Firefox and I do not understand ' click on Firefox and while it repairs... etc. ". I am pretty good at following instructions, but these baffle me. Help, please!

I haven't seen that pop up...

If you want to try to roll back the clock I can describe a procedure to do this. In short, it would be to create a new folder of parameters (a new Firefox profile), deletion of the contents of this folder and copy the contents of your old data from Firefox on the desktop file.

Does not take long, if you are interested, but then you have to troubleshoot why the old profile was slow. Here's how:

Resucitating your profile before reset

(1) create a new Firefox profile:

Close Firefox and starts in the Profile Manager, as described in this article:

Use the Profile Manager to create and delete profiles Firefox

Any time want spending profiles, close Firefox and come back to this dialog box. When you create a new profile, I recommend that you use the suggested default location, not to delete all profiles without first making backups. For quick reference, name the 12 profile so you can easily recognize.

(2) when you start in the new profile, it is almost empty. Open the profile folder using

Help > troubleshooting information > "view file" button.

The bar of Windows Explorer should show a name combining random characters with 12.

(3) keep this folder open, exit Firefox. Allow a few moments for Firefox complete update of the files in the profile folder. Then delete the contents of the folder new profile. This will leave you with a profile folder 12 vacuum.

(4) in a separate window, open the folder of old data from Firefox on your desktop. Copy all the data of this file in the profile folder 12 vacuum.

(5) run Firefox. It is expected to launch in which looks exactly like your discount to zero prior configuration.

Now on troubleshooting. If Firefox feels slow, I suggest starting with Safe Mode. It is a standard diagnostic tool in order to avoid interference by extensions (and some custom settings). More info: questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode.

You can restart Firefox in Mode safe help

Help > restart with disabled modules

In the dialog box, click on 'Start mode safe' (not Reset)

Any difference?
