I upgraded to Firefox 5.0 and now have no Google Toolbar. I'm not sure what else is disabled as incompatible, but I want to revert to my previous version. How can I do this without losing my settings and plugins? I could not find version 4.0.1 on Mozilla's website. Only version 5.0 appears to be available.

Firefox version 4 (4.0, 4.0.1) is no longer supported.

The Google Toolbar is no longer supported by Google in Firefox 5 and up, you may be able to get what you want from it for a limited time, the directions to install the Google Toolbar were posted before Google actually announced dropping support.

In any case you can find several alternative solutions, and you can start working on them now, see

If this solves your problem then mark as solved, if there is an aspect that is not covered directly or through searching extensions on that page, or other searching that you can try, please indicate what is not covered and describe what it does and we will try to help you with a Firefox solution. Don't expect to see anything that is an exact replacement of a Google Toolbar feature. Likewise if you have additional solutions not covered others would likely want to hear about them.

Install this add-on instead which does pretty much the same thing as the Google Toolbar: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/googlebar/
