I have the edition 9.0.1 installed on Windows XP home edition, but it opens without the Firefox button appearing in the rectangular box at the upper left of the screen. It does show File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools and Help.
Should I have the Firefox button? Do I even need it?
Thank you.

Hi sanfran,

The Firefox button can be enabled/disabled at will. To turn it on, you can just go to View > Toolbars and disable the Menu bar. This article will walk you through the process.

Using the Firefox menu is really just a personal preference. There is no "real" advantage to using it or not.

Hopefully this helps!
