[Windows 8] Firefox tabs have become massive.

The size of my tabs is ridiculously high.

I am currently using Pale Moon; However, I confirmed this problem on Firefox, Aurora and every night.

I also tried to erase all user data.

As mentioned in the question, I use Windows 8 Pro.

Create a new profile in Windows corrects the problem. Even after the merger of most of my old AppData.

PS If you delete a profile on Windows from another profile, select "Keep files" it will always mix your downloads. (80GBs of ouch)

  • Firefox tabs have been changed

    After starting my computer this morning, I found all my Firefox tabs had been removed, bing was now my search engine, and several other custom settings have been changed. The only known change performed the last time the computer was installed in "Smilebox". Also, at the start, I was not called to provide my password. I did a reboot and the password is required. Anything to worry about?

  • Why are the texts and logos on the tabs do on new windows of firefox?

    Opening a new window of firefox, the text on the tab (for example Mozilla Firefox Start Page) and the logo to the left of this one first becomes misaligned, almost as if the text has been "cut in half" vertically and not place back together with precision. The button fullscreen and him "open a new tab" button overlap too on the upper right side.

    To access the full mode screen, cmd + ctrl + F must be pressed twice. Once to get back to 'normal' browser how the tabs should look like, with the text of the tab and the normal logo, and the second time it gets full screen.

  • How to close multiple windows of firefox (not mulitple tabs)

    I often have several internet messaging Windows Open (often each window has several tabs). I would like to be able to leave all the windows with just a single closure of firefox. Currently, I can close each window with multiple tabs with a single large. I would like to extend this to several windows (each with several tabs).
    I just right click on its icon in the Solution Explorer, and one of the options is to "close all windows", and that's all. I would like to see this option available in firefox. Thank you

  • Which is better to have several user accounts from window for the same person, so having much Firefoxes or have much Firefoxes under a Windows account user?

    Right now I have about 6 window user accounts (just for me on a single computer) because I didn't know I could put more Firefox then one per account. I leave the tabs upward when I close Firefox, because if I just bookmarks I won't finish my work I was doing with these sites. Now that I know how to put multiple Firefoxes under a user account. That would make my computer fast or not, it matter if I put all my Firefoxes on a window user account or have 6 windows user accounts, each with their own Firefox?
    -Thank you

    It is more work to move to a different Windows account and then open another instance of Firefox with a different profile.
    If you only use other windows accounts for the use of Firefox like this and not for any other purpose, then there is nothing against the passage to a single Windows account to make it easier to manage such things as the backup of your personal data or copy data between the other profiles.

    So, it's up to you if you want to switch to a single Windows account.

  • I had to reinstall Windows XP again and now him "you have become a victim of software piracy" has appeared.

    Hello

    I had to reinstall Windows XP again and now him "you have become a victim of software piracy" has appeared. I know for sure my code OEM is legal, because I enabled Windows XP on this machine before several times. So I decided to activate the key using msoobe.exe and via the internet.
    Apparently, internet activation is not available (a message code 24579). Of course, I tried the phone activation. Called on the answering machine, type the digits of the ID of the instalation. It don't did me not have any code to write in the fields ABCDEFG. Only that a mistake occurred.  Then I clicked on "Change product key" once asked me to do. Type in the product key. But it was rejected. I answered honestly, machine that I have not any new instalation ID. They said I need to contact the seller, because my key is not genuine... obviously, there is no way that he can help me.
    What should I do now?
    Thank you in advance.
    original title: cannot activate the XP by phone

    The key used here is a Volume that was never issued by Microsoft - license key was generated by the KeyGen tool a hacker.

    If it is key that you tried to activate, so it is no surprise it is rejected.

    If however, you have a valid key for Win XP Pro, you can change the it to this one, using the product key update tool, as Carey said. - http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/help/genuine/product-key

  • All Microsoft Office 2007 shortcut icons, filetype icons and icons in the taskbar running have become generic on Windows 7 64.

    EDIT: PLEASE ACTUALLY READ THE DESCRIPTION THAT I HAD ALREADY TRIED THE SUGGESTED THINGS AND DETAILS TO THE QUESTIONS THAT ARE ASKED ARE ALREADY IN POSITION.

    I don't know what is happening, but it's driving me crazy, especially with the new start menu style that shows the icon, I am unable to say what program is because the icon looks like a generic file. If I go to default Programs editor all file extensions that are associated with Microsoft Office 2007 have become generic. How can I fix? What could have caused this?

    Note on the file program (exe) himself the icon is there, but not on anything else!

    I had this problem in the past and I just do a reformat/reinstall of windows and it has a way to date. I tried to regenerate my cache icon so that repair the installation of MS Office and even uninstalling and reinstalling MS Office all to nothing does not.

    System Restore is not enabled then please do not suggest that.

    I feel that I noticed this time that happens right after the installation of VMWare Player. It could be related? The last time when it happened, it seems possible that I had also installed VMWare Player recently but I don't remember.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    It all depends on how you created your shortcuts. Are you talking about default desktop shortcuts in the start menu > all programs > Microsoft Office folder. These folders are shortcuts custom icons Windows Installer created by office... not directly since the EXE file. An Office repair must recreate these shortcuts. If not, you could try to remove all your desktop shortcuts and run a repair.
    Here's a quick way to fix a few shortcuts:
    Click on START and type > run > press enter
    Paste the following command line and and change the # symbols with the appropriate below version of office.
    MsiExec.exe/FS {90120000-00#- 0000-0000-0000000FF1CE}
    Replace the # by the code in the appropriate version of the Office
    Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2007 = 11
    Microsoft Office Standard 2007 = 12
    Microsoft Office Professional 2007 = 14
    Microsoft Office Ultimate 2007 2nd =
    Microsoft Office Small Business 2007 = CA
    Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007 = 2F
    Missing? Other products are listed in this article:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/928516
    You can also create shortcuts in the old-fashioned way. Right-click on your desktop and select new > shortcut
    Browser to the Microsoft Office\Office 12\ (select the program)...
    I hope this helps
