Before offering advice about modifying the UI as you think you need, please post a screenshot of what your Firefox browser window looks like now.

See this support article. How do I create a screenshot of my problem? It is best to use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot and make sure that you do not exceed a maximum file size of 1 MB. Then use the Browse .... button below the Post a Reply text box to upload the screenshot.

I would also like to stop applications from launching firefox because they use it to go around my firewall on windows 10. Any suggestions?

Most applications will use the built-in Internet Explorer-based plumbing of Windows for internet access. Which applications use Firefox?

There is some malware that may launch its own copy of Firefox from a different folder. To see what folder a process is running from, you can add a column to the Windows Task Manager:

(1) Call up the Task Manager using Ctrl+Shift+Esc.

(2) Switch to the Details tab (first click the "More Details" at the bottom if you don't see any tabs).

(3) Right-click any column heading > Select Columns, and add Command Line.

(4) The normal Command Line for 64-bit firefox.exe would be similar to:

• Main process: "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
• Child processes: "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -contentproc [etc.]

If you see Firefox running from an unexpected folder, that's suspicious. I don't know what tools Windows has to track that down, but you could look at Microsoft's Process Explorer program which can show you the parent process of the rogue Firefox:
