I was removing VideoConvert by myway and then found I'd lost Most Visited facility tab, so I was following a Support advice to go to browser.places.smartBookmarksVersion;7 - double click amend value to 0 - and etc. I tried this several times and some how I managed to convert the 'Type' to String instead of integer.... so I then tried to alter it back to 'integer - unsuccessfully, so now find I cannot change it back.

And I still do not have the Most Visited facility.

What should I do?

Thanks

I've done that and it is now checked.

I see there is 'Customize' there - should I click that ad do something?

Hi DorothyB, you shouldn't need to use Customize. Please see the attached screen shot showing what I mean about turning on the Bookmarks Toolbar.

Thank you for the screen shot. As I said above, thankfully, all seems well now.
