Hi,

Many thanks for any help you can offer on this.

I'm not sure if it may be part of Mozilla's UI decluttering efforts or perhaps just a bug but for some reason the "Window" menu is missing from the Firefox menu bar on both of my Windows PCs. It's still present in Firefox on my Mac though.

FYI: Mac -- OS: High Sierra, 10.13.6; Firefox: 60.5.2esr 64-bit

Windows -- OS: Win10; Firefox 65.0.2 64-bit

Is this a bug or was there a consious decision by developers to remove it? In either case, any help you can offer on how to restore this menu to the menu bar will be much appreciated!

FYI: Self help attempted so far: 

 Restart Firefox -> "Window" menu still missing
 Restart Windows and Firefox -> Still missing
 Check for updates, apply them, reboot -> "Window" menu still missing
 Google searches -> Found nothing applicable
 Question search on Mozilla website -> Found nothing applicable
 Checked about:config -> Didn't find any preferences that explicitly seem related
 Tried right-clicking on the menu bar and selecting "customize" -> No option to restore the menu

Thanks once again, D

Hello llihd,

On Windows the menu bar doesn't have the "Window"
button - that's on Mac only .....

(Windows doesn't have this feature to cycle between multiple windows of a specific application like Mac does)
