FF 146 on Win 10 Pro

Installed okay; everything seems to have come over. Found some stuff
missing; turns out that Moz hid it on me, and I was able to restore it.
Then I noticed that the Bookmarks toolbar, which I always have open,
looks like it's now in dark mode. So:

- Right click > customize toolbar
- Click on "Restore Defaults"; "Done"

Back to "normal" (light) appearance.

Now - I've been using a theme that I'm fond of (Charles Schulz's
Peanuts in a couple of varieties). I activate that; BAM - the bookmarks toolbar is back to dark mode.

So: how do I get light mode and this old (not updated since 2022) theme
to coexist? Specifically, where can I edit the settings of a theme, or
just of the bookmarks toolbar? Every @#$^^& website I found explained
that I could download themes, activate themes, activate other themes,
delete themes. But none of them told me how to EDIT themes, nor where
their configuration files are stored.

Appreciate any insight.

You can't edit the theme. Only the author can. They are signed (in a fashion) and I've
tried but the theme reloads. The UUID of the theme possibly links it to the source.
I've written my own for TB, it doesn't have the logic, so I tried it on a FF theme. Dang
if it didn't work for a few minutes or session maybe.

Maybe some userChrome.css code you could force you own colors.
Try this if you want to:

#PersonalToolbar { background-color: black !important; }

Of course pick your own color wishes.

From the previous version of Firefox (145), using the same profile.
Given the amount of changes in this version, I expected that some of my extensions (not too many - about 10) might have been removed. However,
it seems that they were merely hidden.
