Firefox loads, icon on the bar of tasks but when you click the slide of graphics off to the right, but does not fill the screen & when you right-click again, falls back into the icon

Firefox, Thunderbird and Quicken were active when I loadad & ran a slot machine game. When I left the game & click on icon to return to Firefox full screen, I could see the flash of the image to the right of my screen and disappear. When I clicked on the icon in the taskbar, the reverse happened - the image flashed from the right down to the icon. When I hover the mouse over the icon, the open screens appear with the red X to close, but the same thing happens when I click on this box. Two other programs that have been opened, while the game was active work correctly, only Firefox has been affected. I can't open the program to access one of the menu items that I can't get the image of the screen on the monitor. I did uninstall and reinstall a freshly downloaded copy, I had to use IE, as I am now) but with the same results when I run. I did chose to save my settings, so if something has changed here so maybe that's the problem.

Hello

Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most of the modules.

(If you use it, switch to the default theme).

  • You can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
  • Or open the Help menu and click on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item while Firefox is running.

Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot mode safe. "

If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. To do this, please follow article Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems .

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. It might help others who have the same problem.

Thank you.

  • Firefox hangs at startup, or starts a process but does not open the browser.

    In the last few days, Firefox has had many problems.

    When I open it, the window hangs and crashes after a few seconds, if it opens at all. Other times, trying to open Firefox simply won't open the window, but will leave an additional process running in the background that I have to manually shut down via the Task Manager.

    I did a fresh profile. I restarted Firefox. Already got hardware acceleration checked and disabled. still having the same problem. I've uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox several times. I ran a scan of my system with Malwarebytes; nothing detected. It is not even a newspaper of the accident. I looked through the support forums, found people with problems similar to mine, but no solution posted for them for some time last month.

    Firefox seems to operate normally if a version 21 installation, which opens toward the top of the browser window. Everything works fine, until I got close the browser and then reopen it.

    Just out of curiosity, this behavior (suspended the launch after a Windows Update) would be a registry problem? If so how could we check?

    Hmm. I think it's nice that my post is a chosen Solution. Now, if someone could just tell me what is the solution... :))

  • Firefox does not fill the screen

    Hello

    Yesterday I had Firefox and explore (ugh!) browsers open at the same time, as I just changed my site on Yahoo Small Business Solutions and Firefox would not save the changes (as a result, the opening of Explorer.) After I finished with the Web site changes, I noticed that there are some changes on my page of Firefox. It does not fit my screen by about 1/4 "on the sides and bottom, and the top is not complete as if it was - the office's bleeding through in empty space up there. Help, please! Thanks, Qz

    Open Firefox-> click the maximize button to fill the screen completely-> close Firefox

    • Restart Firefox
    • Now, the window should open maximized

    Check and tell if its working.

  • Program BACK in Guest XP on Windows 7 does not fill the screen

    Hello world

    I have a quite unique due to many circumstances situation and several months of research to get to a decent workaround.

    I have a tool written in Basic for MS-DOS. I need to use this tool and the interface with the files created in Windows 7. VMWare Player with no very good support for sharing files between DOS with Windows 7 clients, I have opted for a guest of Windows XP on my computer Windows 7 host and who go through the program. In this way, I can share files between XP and 7 and run the program correctly in the XP VM. Note that this program doesn't work at all on Windows 7 due to some problems graphics driver, hence the need for such a solution.

    When I run the XP VM, it is able to match the resolution as expected. However, when I open the program BACK, he is not full screen as it does on a native XP machine or even a VM XP in VMWare Fusion on a Mac. Is there a way to force it to fill the screen? The graphics full screen are vital for visibility - I can barely see anything on the screen of dinky little 640 x 480 without blowing up to its maximum potential.

    I tried several other options, including a Windows VM (I'm under Windows 7 Enterprise) and DOSBOX. Windows VM has the same problem resolution in addition to requiring the integration of features enabled to share files and requiring the same integration disabled features in order to run the program and the DOSBOX not full screen but the performance is much too slow to be practical (it is similar to take 2 minutes to scroll through a web page that is several pages a notch long) even at maximum settings.

    Please no suggestions ' do you have the printer "-I am part of a team of average size on how it works and it's pretty much the last roadblock after several months of work. We probably tried everything which is immediately obvious, including the recompilation of the source code for the program BACK (that we had to do anyway to remove a lock imposed by a society that no longer exists).

    The closest that I have is to reduce the resolution of the host Windows 7 in 800 x 600, which makes the VM a bit larger but still not quite full screen. I try to activate the VGA 640 x 480 mode, I guess? Even in this case, however, the need for constantly changing screen resolutions makes this solution less than ideal.

    Thank you for all the suggestions/help.

    Do I understand correctly:

    -It is an application with a fixed resolution of 640 x 480 fullscreen

    -You want that he developed the scale to fit to your screen

    As far as I KNOW, VMware Player is not just what to do.

    There is a tutorial in the section documents for a workaround (using the changer display to automatically change the resolution of the host).
