I recently did update FF, and the + sign that was next to the tabs which allowed me to open a new tab disappeared. Is this a new "feature," or is there something I can do to get this back?. I've attempted to customized the toolbar, but there doesn't appear to be the + on that or a way to open a new tab - just a new window. Thanks in advance.

Customize Firefox controls, buttons and toolbars {web link}

Type about:customizing<enter> in the address bar.

Note: about:customizing is no longer present in Firefox 47+ releases.

  • Press Alt or F10 to bring up the Menu Bar.Then View > Toolbars > Customize.
  • Right-click on a blank spot in the toolbar and select Customize.

In the new window, look for the icon. When you find it, hold down the left button on it, and move it to where you want it to be. You can move any of the icons you want from here, but; some icons are locked in place.

There is also a Restore Defaults button at the bottom right.
