Safari Not Showing Website Icons & Disappearing Search Bar Issue

Hi everyone,

I’m experiencing a couple of issues with Safari on my MacBook Pro, and I’m hoping someone here can help. When I open websites, the icons that typically show on the Safari tabs are not appearing. Instead, the tabs just display "the star page icon, making it difficult to identify different websites at a glance.

Additionally, the search bar at the top of Safari keeps disappearing. The entire website content takes up the full screen, and I can only see the search bar if I move the mouse cursor to the top of the screen where it should be. It’s quite inconvenient since I’d prefer the search bar to always be visible.

Has anyone else encountered these issues? If so, are there any solutions or settings adjustments I should try? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
