I’ve been using xtool D1 laser for 2 years and running older version of Lightburn. No problems. I broke my laptop recently and after getting a new one and now running latest 1.6.01 version of lightburn, I now have no Laser Fire button. I have checked device setting and the option to turn the button on is not there, as it was in the older version. I’ve got jobs piling up…please help! 
I see your settings are for X Tool and mine are for GRBL, so I’m not sure what’s going on.
Might need to get help from other’s like @gilaraujo or @parsec .
Sorry I couldn’t be more help.
No, I didn’t. And I have no idea what you are talking about if I’m being honest! I set it up exactly the same way as I did on my previous laptop - using the ‘Add device’ facility. However, this time Lightburn could not detect it, even though it was powered up and connected through the com port. I used the facility to add a device manually and selected Xtool from the list. I know It is connected as the device auto-homes when I select the com port.
So I am baffled!
Thank you anyway. Appreciate you taking your time to try and help me.

While you can use the procedure presented by @parsec, you also have the option to use the Device Wizard to add support for your xTool device. This is a relatively new behavior, which was not available when you first added your device originally.
Thanks @parsec that worked perfectly. I now have all the controls I used to have with a quick and easy fix.
