How to remove "Open menu"
15,557
The manual way
I'm listing this first as it's the most efficient way.
Close Firefox.
-
Add the following code to your
userChrome.css
file:#PanelUI-menu-button { display: none !important; }
It is located in the
chrome
subfolder inside your Firefox profile folder. Create one in case it doesn't exists already. Here's an example: userChrome-example.css.Note Apparently
!important
doesn't seem to be needed and could be omitted. Start Firefox again.
Userstyle
If you have the Stylish add-on installed, you can use this: Hide #PanelUI-menu-button for firefox v29+.

I am using Firefox 29. I would like to remove this menu because I prefer the Menu Bar. How can I do this?

Zombo about 10 yearsGreat answer. Also it makes sense that
!important
is optional as I suspect you would rarely have competing chrome CSS definitions. -
Rads about 10 yearsSince there was no such, I have created "userChrome.css" (with content as you wrote) inside a newly created "Chrome" folder. Then I have copied this "Chrome" folder to these two locations: - C:\Users[user]\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles - C:\Users[user]\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles There was no other "Profiles" folder on the whole C:\ but the "menu button" is still there. Do you have some idea what is the problem?

and31415 about 10 years@user321719 The Firefox profile folder is usually stored in the following location in Windows Vista and later:
C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profileFolder>
. To make things easier, press Win+R, type or paste%AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
in the text box, and press Enter. You should see all Firefox profile folders (there's only one by default). Open the folder, and put thechrome
folder there. Assuming you did it right, the changes should be applied next time you start Firefox. -
mach about 4 yearsSince Firefox 69, there is a prerequisite:
userChrome.css
needs to be enabled in about:config, see Firefox 69: userChrome.css and userContent.css disabled by default - gHacks Tech News.
