When 57.0 installed, I moved some icons. Now, on a hit or miss basis, firefox restores them to default locations. Why?

When Version 57 installed, I noticed the theme I had been using had been replaced by a new theme. Some of the icons I use frequently were in a different position on the new theme. So I moved the "homepage" icon from left to right, set the bookmark icons to display, and got rid of a few icons I never use. Since then, periodically (2-3 days), the theme reverts to the default and I have to move the icons again. Also, sometimes the browser will revert to my "old" theme (I think it was called Classic) even though I know the Classic theme is supposedly no longer available. This has happened 5-6 times since 57 installed. Tonight 57.0.1 installed, and I am hoping that this problem has been solved with the update. Firefox is still better than other browsers. I just wish it would make up its mind...haha. Thank you

That's pretty much what I've been doing. Thanks for replying. Firefox is still the best browser. I just wish it would make up it's mind...hahaha.

I did update to 57.0.1 earlier this evening. I moved the icons, and am hoping that they'll stay put this time. It may take a few days before I know. If it happens again, I'll report. Thanks
