Toolbar buttons in Firefox browser randomly moves

Sometimes when I open the Firefox browser the toolbar buttons (Home, Back, Forward, etc.) randomly moves around in the navigation toolbar. After manually adding the buttons/changing position things work our fine for some time, but at some point this happens again after opening a browser window.

Usually it's the same "wrong" position that appears: Back and Foward buttons remain in place but Home button has been moved to the right of Address box and Search box while Refresh and Stop buttons are gone.

What's the problem? Add-ons? Plugins? Something else?

Sounds like a problem with the localstore.rdf file in the Firefox profile folder.

Do you have (security) software that might protect and restore an older copy of this file?

Note that the default position of the Home button is at the far right of the Navigation Toolbar and the combined Reload/Stop/Go button is positioned at the right end side of the location bar where you also have the star to bookmark web pages.

Thanks. I deleted the localstore.rdf file and haven't experienced the issue after the new file was created.
