How to Reopen the Toolbars in Mozilla

The March 22, 2011, release of Mozilla Firefox 4 may have left you wondering what happened to all of the toolbars. This streamlined version of Mozilla's browser sacrifices visible toolbars, such as the Menu Bar and Bookmarks Toolbar, for a larger browsing window. If you find yourself missing these toolbars, Mozilla allows you to easily reopen them and keep them open. This effectively gives you the Firefox 4 features with the older version appearance.

Instructions

1. Press the "Alt" key to open the top Menu Bar.

2. Click "View" in the Menu Bar, and point to "Toolbars" in the drop-down menu.

3. Click the toolbar you wish to permanently reopen, such as the Menu Bar, Bookmarks Toolbar and Navigation Toolbar. If a check mark appears next to the toolbar, then it is already visible and does not need to be checked.
