Since I have no address bar, I cannot type config in the address bar to activate the address bar.
New laptop. Downloaded Firefox and have been unable to activate the address bar so have no back arrows or home icon or search area, etc. Please do not suggest I access controls in the address bar. I do not have an address bar in which to access anything. I do not want to customize the address bar. I just want to be able to see and use the controls every illustration on getting started and help shows are there, as they were on my old laptop.

First, make sure you are not in Firefox's "full screen" view. The F11 key switches between regular and full screen modes.
Second, you can turn individual toolbars on and off using either:
- right-click a blank area of the tab bar
- right-click the "+" button on the tab bar
- tap the Alt key > View menu > Toolbars
The address box is on the Navigation Toolbar.
If the Navigation Toolbar is displayed but the address box is missing, your bars may be corrupted. You can use the "Restore Default Set" button in the Customize dialog to restore it. Customize Firefox controls, buttons and toolbars.
Any luck?

Can you attach a screenshot of how it currently looks for you?

Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
- Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.
