How do I get my old Firefox back

How can I get my old Firefox back for my Windows 7. I'm not sure what version of Firefox I had before I downloaded this new one. With this new Firefox it comes with a Yahoo search bar which I cannot stand and a lot of other buttons I don't want. With my old version I had everything the way I wanted it but now it is all gone. Please help and show me the path way back to my old Firefox.
Thank you, Mike

The Yahoo toolbar may have been added by an extension or other (security) software on your computer.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

    Firefox is highly customizable and you may be able to customize it to meet your needs.
    If you do not like the new UI, you can make Firefox 4 look and behave more like Firefox 3.6, for details see http://www.computertechtips.net/64/make-firefox-4-look-like-ff-3-6
    To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
    You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
    To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.
    For details of how to find your profile folder see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles

  • How can i get my old firefox back?

    I don't like this new blue one and didn't ask for it, it was suddenly there. Besides, it has some really peculiar behaviour. As an example, right at this moment I have 5 firefox tabs open. The first one is a question on your forum. When I clicked the 'ask a question' link at the top of the page, it opened the next page in a new tab. And when I clicked the search button on that page, it opened another tab again. That tab asked me what product I want support with and opened another tab with the next page. And yet 10 minutes ago it was working properly. It keeps doing this, suddenly changing it's mind on how it opens new pages.
    Also, I can be scrolling down a page using the scroll wheel on my mouse, then suddenly it stops scrolling and starts making the page larger or smaller instead. Why does it keep changing it's mind on what it's doing?
    Really don't like this new browser and would appreciate it if I could get my old one back which worked perfectly well and really didn't need upgrading.

    Thanks for your response Cor el, I'll try that the next time it happens, it's completely random. One moment it functions normally then suddenly it changes its mind.
    Restarting my pc usually brings it back to normal until next time.
    One thing I've noticed, but not 100% sure there's a connection here.....I edit my websites online and log into cpanel which opens new pages in separate tabs, as it should do. It seems that this problem occurs when I'm logged into cpanel...if i'm logged in then open a new tab for regular browsing of other sites then all links on those sites also open in new tabs.
    Ican't say for sure if it's always only happened when logged into cpanel, but certainly on the last 3 occasions.
    At the moment it's behaving normally so much I can do to check your suggestions, but will try them the next time it occurs.
    One other thing I forgot to mention too....since i've had the new firefox, I've noticed that when I log into yahoo and post comments, I often find myself having to log on for each new post. Everything was fine with old firefox and there have been no other changes to my pc .

  • Verity Credit Union site will not open with the new Firefox. How can I get the old Firefox back?

    I want old Firefox back. My credit union, Verity, will not open with the new version of Firefox I have downloaded.

    @glennhaste, the public pages I visited seem identical in IE8 and Fx10, but you may be referring to a part of the site that requires logging in (impossible for non-customers to view).
    Since the problem is so recent, can you recall any changes you made in Firefox, or are you aware of any changes your CU made on its site?
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    1. Clear Firefox's Cache
    Firefox > Preferences > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Offline Storage : "Clear Now"
    2. If needed, delete the site's cookies here
    While viewing a page on the site, "right-click" and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies" (''Sorry, I don't know how you right-click on a Mac'')
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

  • How can I get my old Firefox back, this version sucks?

    This version has nothing I like. How can I go back to the old version I had? I don't know if you think I have furnished enough information or not but I would appreciate an answer. You should not force people to change their toolbar preferences and everything else they have used for years. you had a good thing and you screwed it up. WHY? don't say to improve Firefox because you didn't.

    Please see: [[Common questions after updating Firefox]]
    You can try this extension to override compatibility issues if you have those,

  • I downloaded firefox 5 but lost my tool bars, how can i get the old version back?

    I downloaded firefox 5 but lost my tool bars, how can i get the old version back? It said my tool bars are not compatible. I want them back.

    That is the new appearance Firefox 4 and now Firefox 5, you can easily put things back because Firefox is customizable.
    You can make Firefox 4.0.1 and '''Firefox 5.0''' look like Firefox 3.6.17, see numbered items 1-10 in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 look like 3.6)]

  • After upgrading from Mac 10.6 to 10.9, firefox creates new windows by an "expanding" animation instead of just appearing. How do I get the old behavior back?

    On Mac 10.6.8, when I create a new window by hitting command-N or going to the file menu, or if another page creates a new window, the new window just appears instantaneously. However, after upgrading to Mac 10.9.2, new windows appear by an "expanding" animation, which takes slightly longer than the old "appearing" behavior. (Other apps on my Mac do not exhibit the "expanding" behavior, only firefox.)
    Was this behavior intentional? How can I get the old behavior back?
    I am using Firefox 28.0.

    Hi __trout__,
    Go to the mac system preferences and click on Doc. There is a Minimize window using.... select the animation there.
    Hope this helps.

  • How Do I Get My Old Version Back "The Way It Was"

    FF updated itself and was shocked at the absolutely awful, terrible, horrible changes that have been made. I learnt a lesson, dont ever tic auto update.
    I want to go back to my Old Version, just the way it was. Tried a system restore and it made things worse, Ive lost all my bookmarks. How do I get back to my original configuration?
    I posted another comment but the "Thought Police" are out in force, you mustn't be seen to be criticizing the, New, Shiny, better than ever, version. Which in my humble opinion goes against the principles that the "Old FireFox" was based on.
    If there isnt a way to get the old firefox back, bookmarks and all, are there any other browsers (Non Mozilla, Google, Microsoft) out there that are worth changing to?

    Pale Moon is firefox in a different set of cloths
    If the old firefox is no longer supported or is totally insecure as you allege, I was looking for a recommendations for "New" browser which doesnt belong to the "Corporate Mainstream"
    And as for the Thought Police just check home many post have been closed when they criticise the ChromeFox
