New to Firefox & in clicking on "Bookmarks" I went to "Bookmarks Toolbar" where I still have, "Latest Headlines" but accidentally deleted, (what was possibly) "Most Visited". I had only wanted to delete the contents of "Most Visited". (Worse is that I did not need to do so but only wanted to see if I could). Is there a way to bring what I deleted back? In fact, is there a way to bring Firefox back to "standard" in case of making a change that you do not want? Any help much appreciated.

Hi TonyE, First to thank you for the very prompt reply. UnfortunatelyI have to ask what is an embarrasingly dumb question, that is, what & where is the "Location Bar" in Firefox where I have to enter the "about:config"?
