Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 319196

(Firefox :: Menus, defect)

Description

[julienewmann]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.4) Gecko/20060508 Firefox/1.5.0.4
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.4) Gecko/20060508 Firefox/1.5.0.4

Even though I customize my Navigation & Toolbars setting & resize the browser, if I close Firefox browser entirely & open Firefox or "Open a New Window" when I'm already in a current Firefox window, all of my customized settings in the size of the browser and Navigation & Toolbars buttons revert back to a default setting which includes (an opened Navigation toolbar & opened Bookmarks toolbar.  The Navigation Toolbar includes the following buttons: "Go back one page," "Go forward one page," "Reload," "Stop," and "Home." )  So even though I change & add to the buttons on the Navigation toolbar & close the Bookmarks toolbar & then resize the Firefox browser, as soon as I click "Open new window" or exit & then run Firefox again, all of my settings revert back to the default I just described above.  Even when I reboot my computer, Firefox browser still has this problem.  I have not been able to resolve this problem.  A friend of mine had this same problem about a month ago & he hasn't been able to fix this either.  I wasn't sure if this was a bug or not.  I have not found any viruses on my computer & I haven't had this problem with other programs on my computer or the other internet browsers.  Please advise.  Thanks so much!

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Closed browser
2. Uninstall Firefox
3. Rebooted computer
4. Reinstalled Firefox (latest edition)
5. Rebooted computer


Actual Results:  
After all of the above steps, Firefox still has the same problems.  My toolbars are still reset.

Expected Results:  
I thought the toolbars & size of the Firefox browser would be fixed, but it still resets itself to the default each time I run Firefox.
