Firefox window blocks everything else on the computer screen

for some reason, the FF window now blocks EVERYTHING else on my computer screen. for example, if I open a PDF file, it opens BEHIND the screen of FireFox. normally the PDF file would be open, and in the new window on my screen, hide at least a portion of the FireFox window. no more. If the FireFox window is open, it blocks everything on my screen. even when I click on these glazed elements, FireFox remains visible and above them. It is a serious problem, because it basically means that I have to close my browser when doing anything with other applications on my computer screen. which, of course, is not realistic and will force me to start using another browser.

Eagle supreme said

reinstall your browser. but still why is this a problem, you can open them in the toolbar at the bottom of the scree with a single click.

No, for some time nothing worked. If FF was open, the thing any blocked FF window on the computer screen. you could click on something else and he would still be blocked by the FF window.

but I went to the control panel and set the window again and properties file to "default" and everything back to normal.

  • Shows of 64bits 21.0 Firefox Windows 8 sometimes suspended in the Task Manager

    I have a laptop of 64-bit windows with Firefox 21.0 8. In the night I turn my computer off (not restart), I have fastboot or anything and when I login I run firefox and nothing happens. I can open Task Manager and find firefox and it says that it is using 178 k or an infinitely small number of memory, then state instead of saying 'running', he said 'suspended '.
    I then finish that firefox and start a new one, and it works fine.
    Why it does not the first time that I start it well?

    Some Firefox problems can be solved by performing a clean reinstall. This means that you remove Firefox program files, and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:

    Note: You can print these steps or consult them in another browser.

    1. Download the latest version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org office and save the installer to your computer.
    2. Once the download is complete, close all Firefox Windows (click on quit in the file menu or Firefox).
    3. Remove the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
      • Windows:

        • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
        • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox
      • Mac: Delete Firefox in the Applications folder.
      • Linux: If you have installed Firefox with the distribution-based package manager, you must use the same way to uninstall: see Install Firefox on Linux. If you have downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.
    4. Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
      1. Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.
      2. Once the wizard is completed, click to open Firefox directly after clicking the Finish button.

  • Downloas file with firefox logo cannot be found in the computer and cannot be used for attachment to e-mail

    I have a "downloads" folder in my documents where all down loaded files are stored. Top down loaded new Firefox browser, it has built its own 'downloads'-in the program. All my downloads I receive mail electronic to the low loading in the "downloads" but when I want the attachment sent to my friends I can not excess of this 'downloads' folder of my email address but the one I've always used before the update to Firefox. How can I access it from Firefox ' downloads so I can attached to my emails? Thank you

    This has happened

    Each time Firefox opened

    Is loaded into the computer new update

    First of all, whenever the file is uploaded in Firefox, you can open the folder it's from the downloads window (see "Open the file folder" Management downloads). In this window, you can see its location.

    To restore the download location for downloads in My Documents, you can change it in the settings or reset the download folder.

    [edit] oh, and exactly how you want to download the file, you do not find later? You may be using "save the link under" or "save the Page under"?

    How can I configure my windows 7 after restoring my laptop to the factory conditians?

    My laptop had a blue screen and I couldn't get rid of it, I went into safe mode and restore my computer to factory conditions. When the computer says "the installation program starts services" you stop and I couldn't turn it back on for 15 minutes.

I've restored my computer several times and never had this problem.

    You should try another recovery.

    New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 7 have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

    If your recovery partition is not available or damaged, you must contact the manufacturer of your computer, and request that a defined recovery disk you can use to reinstall Windows 7. They could practice a small shipping and handling.

  • Windows 7 stuck loading at the Welcome screen

    -Loading of Windows 7 stuck on the Welcome screen

    -Only works on Safe Mode, safe mode with network works well

    -Starting repairs na not

    -I don't have a Windows 7 CD or the HP recovery CD

    -I've never had viruses or malware or connect USB drives for this laptop

    I got a blue screen down yesterday (no external connected device), after which Windows does not go beyond the loading screen. I have not installed the new drivers and programs recent. The last thing I've updated some Adobe applications ended a month ago but my latop working well at all until this blue screen suddenly. It is also the first blue screen crash in like 2 years.

    What has not worked:

    Start by using last good configuration, under the main boot menu

    Uninstalling the drivers I thought to be the cause, in safe mode

    Msconfig: Disable everything under services and startup

    PROMT command: Sfc/Scannow

    My system does not display the restore points

    However, I found restore factore default but that's the last thing that I want to try because I have to do my music and adobe production apps back will cost a lot of time and data.

    Norton Bootable Recovery Tool will fix the problem?

    Operating system: Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

    I have no am HP recovery CD or a CD with Windows 7. Traore is something else I can try without having to go through the service center because it's a wind

  • Windows xp hung up on the loading screen

    I have a gateway LT2016U and windows is suspended upward at the loading screen. the status bar continues to go, but the light of the hard drive on the computer is turned off. When I go to the safe made it stops at the line multi (0) disk (0) rdisk (0) partition (2) \windows\system32\drivers\amdagp.sys to safe mode startup. When I try and make a last known good config is located just at the windows loading screen.

    you could also try mode safe mode with command prompt and see if you get anywhere with the machine.

    If nothing, i.e. None of these boot menu options work, then you should borrow a cd from someone win xp so that you can start with it and start the recovery console.

    I do not have a netbook, but its likely your bios can support USB boot.  in this case, you need a usb cd drive in order to use the above method.

    If using the cd xp is not possible, then your only recourse is to go on the net House books site and see if there are tips that you can use.   but I guess the only option they will bring must provide the step on performing a factory restore, that will wipe the drive and reinstall the original software.

    the original software is the will is in a hidden partition which is inactive on the hard drive.  then using a certain key sequence, the hidden partition will be re-activated and start restoring.

    but send an email to their tech support and see what they say too.

    Printing problems can be caused by cables that are not properly connected, corrupt, drivers, incompatible drivers, the printer settings, missing updates and problems with your printer. Refer to the help article and check if that helps.
