I have no navigation bar ever since I closed it to gain more space on the screen. It won't re-open. Firefox will not open in safe mode, but opens immediately in normal mode with the new improper config, so I cannot reset to default config. I erased Firefox and re-installed and it still opens with the same faulty config. Why does Firefox not give me the safe mode dialog box, why can I not re-open the nav bar, and how can I do these two things, please? Firefox is currently unusable for me without a nav bar and without access to the default settings in safe mode. I cannot research the extensions I'm running since I have no nav bar to go to Tools, Add-ons, Extensions.

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

I closed the navigation bar to gain more space on the screen and I couldn't re-open it.

Hit the Alt key to show the Menu bar, then open View > Toolbars and select Menu bar and Navigation bar, so they have a check-mark.
