Firefox does not appear in "partial" mode I can't get the display full screen or reduced display, not the intermediate partial screen window.

The 'partial screen' icon does not work. When it is selected, the screen is reduced to the minimum. (Hover displays the text 'restore down', that doesn't look right.)

When the screen is reduced to a minimum, I have to hover over the preview, right - select optimize for any screen at all, and it's the display full screen.

Difficulty? I tried to uninstall/re-install has not fixed the problem.

Hello rclacher, try this to reset the settings of user interface in firefox: go in firefox > help > troubleshooting information, click on file/show profile folder and close all firefox windows later. a windows Explorer window should open upwards - in there remove the file named localstore.rdf - it will be regenerated the next time you launch the browser.

  • Firefox does not open more than one window, only opens new tabs. Firefox does not open in safe mode.

    Firefox does not open more than one window at a time, and then opens only new tabs. When asked to open the link in a new window - nothing happens, no error message or the page appears. Otherwise, it works great, but no new firefox window cannot be opened menu or the mouse. I tried to reinstall firefox several times, which did not help.

    This has happened

    There are some extensions that are causing a problem like that. See this:

    I don't have the extensions/themes. And the problem is still there on the safe mode.
    Out of the two files mentioned as maybe corrupted, I deleted formhistory.sqlite but the sessionstore.js file is not in the profile directory, the closing of Firefox (as the article suggests... it is there when Firefox is open)

    What is the start setting?

    Tools > Options > general > startup: 'when Firefox starts '.

    In Firefox 3, you don't get popup "Save and quit" dialog box if you choose Tools > Options > general > startup: "When Firefox starts": "show my windows and tabs from last time '.

    If this option is selected then your pages will be already reopened the next time.

    To get this pop up dialog box, select one of the other options (display my home page, display a blank page).

    JOHN ROBERTSON VS

    Hi JohnRobertsonVS,

    Method 1

    Refer to the Microsoft article to download and install Windows Help program (WinHlp32.exe), check to see if it helps.

    I can not open Help files that require the Windows Help program (WinHlp32.exe)

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/917607

    Method 2

    Try the method below and see if it helps.

    a. Open a command prompt window and run the following command:

    regsvr32 msxml3.dll

    b. Press ENTER.

    Note: To open a command prompt window, click Start, click programs, accessories principally made, right click Guest and then click run as administrator.

    Method 3

    If the previous step fails then I suggest that scan you SFC on the computer that would be a corrupt system file search.

    The analysis may take some time, so be patient. Windows allows to fix corrupt or missing files it finds. If the information of the installation CD is required to fix the problem, you may be asked to insert your Windows Vista installation CD.

  • Firefox does not start (not safe mode), but uses the CPU

    I have the latest Firefox 25.0 (and the last Flash 11.9.900.117) on Windows 7 and the following behavior is reproducible. It started not too long ago.

    At first when I launch Firefox, nothing appears no matter how often, I restart. I see in the list of the process firefox.exe to 25% of the CPU, 2 x FlashPlayerPlugin_11_9_900_117.exe (CPU 0%) and plugincontainer.exe. No matter how many times I killed all of them, would not restart Firefox.

    The following also not help in this situation:

    • Starting in normal safe mode: Firefox opens a window but immediately freezes and does not respond. The process list shows the same process even if I find the unexpected FlashPlayer.
    • Disable plugincontainer: same results (just without plugincontainer.exe)
    • Uninstall Flash: Same results (just without FlashPlayerPlugin)

    The following can start Firefox only once:

    • Starting in SafeMode but select "Reset Firefox": Firefox does not start right away, however. Nothing happens, and you have to kill the process. However the very next time you launch Firefox in the normal way, it works fine (but it shows FlashPlayerPlugin.exe in the list of unopened Windows process despite the tab). Unfortunately, after closing Firefox the process (Firefox, FlashPlayerPlugin) are not deleted. I kill and the problem with Firefox do not leave reappears.

    In case you use "clear history of Firefox closing:

    • do not delete Cookies

    Note that compensation "Preferences of Site" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, windows pop up, installation of software and passwords.

    Use "Firefox > output" (Windows: Firefox/file > quit;) Mac: Firefox > quit Firefox. Linux: Firefox/file > exit) to close Firefox if you are currently doing by clicking on the X close in the title bar of Firefox.

    Create a new profile manually (and not via the reset) as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problems.

    See "create a profile":

    If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a profile in the new profile, but be careful not to copy files corrupted to avoid transporting on the problem.

  • I don't have a navigation bar and firefox does not open in safe mode to return to the default configuration. Does not work reinstall. Any help please.

    I have no navigation bar since I closed it to have more space on the screen. It will not re - open. Firefox does not open in safe mode, but immediately opens in normal mode with the new configuration incorrect, so I can't reset to default configuration. I deleted Firefox and re-installed and it always opens with the same faulty configuration. Why doesn't Firefox give me the safe mode dialog box, why can I not re - open the navigation bar, and how I can do those two things, please? Firefox is currently unusable for me without a navigation bar with no access to the default settings in safe mode. I can't search the extensions that I use since I have no navigation bar to go to tools, modules, Extensions.

    This has happened

    Each time Firefox opened

    I closed the navigation bar to make more space on the screen and I could not re - open.

  • Firefox does not open in full screen on the task bar and I have to go over it to see the web page.

    Firefox does not open in full screen on the task bar and I have to go over it to see the web page.

    Firefox window is sometimes "off screen" somehow. Often, you can force it to appear on the screen by right clicking on the thumbnail image just above the taskbar and choose expand. Does it work?

    A possible cause for this is that the file that stores the positions and sizes of window is corrupt. You can delete this file and Firefox will return to standard window resizing.

    #1 method: If you can get a zoomed window:

    Open the settings folder (AKA Firefox profile) current Firefox help

    • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > troubleshooting information
    • (menu bar) Help > troubleshooting information
    • type or paste everything: in the address bar and press Enter

    In the first table of the page, click on the view file"" button. This should launch a new window that lists the various files and folders in Windows Explorer.

    Leave this window open, switch back to Firefox and output, either:

    • "3-bar" menu button > button "power".
    • (menu bar) File > Exit

    Pause while Firefox finishing its cleanup, then rename xulstore.json to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename this to localstore.old.

    Launch Firefox back up again. Windows normally appear again?

    #2 method: If you can not get a Firefox window for all:

    Close Firefox by right clicking the icon in the taskbar > close all windows.

    Using the Run dialog box (windows key + R) or the start search bar menu type or paste the following and press Enter to drill down to the profiles folder:

    %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
    

    Here you can see a folder - in this case, double-click that - or more than one case - in this case, double-click on in what looks like the most recently updated.

    Scroll down and rename xulstore.json to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename this to localstore.old.

    Launch Firefox back up again. Windows normally appear again?

    Then, to re - light bars, you can use one of the following methods to view the list of the toolbar, and then select the desired bars it:

    To activate the menu bar, toolbar bookmarks or other bars, click it in the list.

    Hello

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily disables hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

    If Firefox does not work, you can start Firefox in Mode safe as follows:

    • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.

    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

    If the problem is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps described in the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. This might help others with the same problem.
