Windows Firefox close but said she is still ongoing.

Sometimes when I close Firefox then try to reopen it, I get a window saying there is another Firefox close Firefox or restart the computer running. (or something like that). I go to Task Manager and nothing is there, so I have to restart. I use Firefox 8.0 running Vista 32 bit, I did a complete wipe and reinstall even improved to 7-8 and the problem came back. For more information, you can contact me at [email protected] Thank you

Try to wait a little longer before you reopen Firefox to give Firefox more time to close completely.

Try using ' Firefox/file > exit ' (Mac: ' Firefox > leave ";) Linux: "file > exit ') to close Firefox if you're doing that by clicking on the X close in the title bar.

  • When I close Firefox my computer says it is still ongoing and I have to restart my computer to get Firefox to run... This is a first for me.

    Every time I close Firefox and try restarting my computer leaves a message that I have Firefox running and that it does not and must be closed. The problem is that it is not a Firefox always running, therefore, it is impossible to close and therefore impossible to open it. I used all forms of Firefox and this is the first time that this has happened. Please, please don't force me to use Chrome or iExplorer!

    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.

    You can check if it is useful when you can start Firefox in Safe Mode by holding down the shift/Options key.

    He is currently using a Volume License KMS client.

    Based on your report, you are currently using KMS license that requires that you enable with a KMS host. This is normally configured by an IT Department in a company to manage activations of clients on a network. This should be done every 6 months (180 days).

    If the school is a license for Windows 7 Enterprise, you can try to join the domain and see if she wakes. Its possible to repair ship installed a non-genuine Windows 7 license Enterprise or trial that uses a KMS host that is illegal. So your best optio is likely to have reimagee using the standard image of schools which may contain important apps you need as an office.

  • The addons on Firefox stopped, but they are all still turned on?

    After you restart Firefox multiple times, it seems that some addons that I activated have stopped working, I have to say that all the addons are always enabled, but have stopped working. They are all updated and so is Firefox, they were compatible before restart me Firefox. Does anyone have an idea of what is happening and how to fix it? Thank you!

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files that store the registry extensions.

    Delete the files (extensions.json, extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini) extensions.* and compatibility.ini in the profile folder of Firefox to reset the extensions registry.

    New files will be created if necessary.

    See "extension corrupted files:

    If you see disabled extensions or is not compatible in "Firefox button/Tools menu > Modules > Extensions ' and then click the Tools button at the left end of the search bar to check if there is an update available compatibility.

    If that didn't help then remove addons.json and possibly prefs.js in the case where there is a problem with preferences.

  • I started to run Disk Defragmenter on my laptop with Windows Vista to 7:45 last night. She is still ongoing at 10:55 the next day. That is what it is? I can't believe that it takes more than 12 hours to defragment a hard drive.

    Defragmenter

    Hi Augie,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

    1. you run defrag disk for the first time?

    Disk Defragmenter is a tool that rearranges the data on your hard drive and brings together fragmented files so that your computer can run more efficiently. We must keep in mind that the Disk Defragmenter uses disk access low priority and processor so that it is not influence your current running programs. This automatically translates a slower process. Disk defragmentation can take a long time if you run it for the first time and also depend on the space of hard disk and available data. If may take up to 15-16 hours, depending on the data and the bad clusters on the hard drive.

    Try the suggested methods.

    Method 1

    If you want to reduce the number of unnecessary files on your hard disk to free up disk space and help your computer run faster, use disk cleanup. It removes temporary files, empty the Recycle Bin, and removes a variety of file system and other items that you no longer need.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/delete-files-using-disk-cleanup

    Method 2

    You can run a disk scan command to remove bad sectors on the hard drive, then run Disk Defragmenter.

    1. open the computer by clicking the Start button, click computer.

    2. right click on the hard drive you want to check, and then click Properties.

    3. click on the sur l' onglet tab Tools and then, under error-checking, click check now.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    To automatically repair problems with files and folders that detects the scanning, select automatically fix file system errors. Otherwise, the disk check will simply report a problem, but not to fix them.

    To perform a full disk check, select search for and attempt recovery of bad sectors. This scan is trying to find and repair physical errors on the hard drive itself, and it may take much longer to complete.

    To check for errors file and the physical errors, select automatically fix file system errors and search for and attempt recovery of bad sectors.

    4. click on Start.

    Depending on the size of your hard disk, this may take several minutes. For best results, do not use your computer for any other tasks while it checks errors.

  • Is my mother getting ripped off, she was contacted by a representative of windows phone 8, who said she has many mistakes and they consulted mote fix him.

    A rep is currently approximately for 2 hours now.  She called to tell me, and it seems too hokey to me.  A representative contact you?  I think she's getting ripped off?

    Your question is not clear, but if you want to say, "Someone called my mom pretending to be technical support, logged on to his computer and has been associated with for two hours now" then the answer is Yes, she is in imminent danger of having his computer corrupted, damaged or stolen from him information.  Read here:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/en-GB/security/online-privacy/avoid-phone-scams.aspx

    You should have your mother back up all the files (photos, movies, music, etc.) that it cannot afford to lose and immediately clean up his computer and restores in factory new condition.  Check the manuals of your computer or the web support site for more details.

    Finally, it must communicate with banks, investment firms, etc. and inform them of what has past.  They will advise what needs to be done to protect its banking assets or accounts online might be hacked by these people.

  • Window is maximized, but not in format full screen

    I have a laptop HP, Pavilion dv5. My problem: I open a window, but the right side is stopped by an imaginary line about 2 inches on the side of the screen (in other words, it does not whole screen). This happens when the window is maximized; otherwise, it appears as normal. I can resize the window by using the arrows, but none appear on the right side and I can't drag and drop further than this point.

    My wallpaper appears normal (takes the entire screen), the taskbar background to run either the width and the desktop icons have not changed. My screen resolution is set to the highest standards. I tried to reset the and defining their return, but this does not solve the problem. I checked the monitor drivers, but did not encounter any problems.

    I had another problem install an HP printer the day before, this has happened. I uninstalled the drivers, as I was getting popups of status generally associated with improper installation. Then I restored the computer and restarted. After that she came back, I was able to open a window normally, but after a few seconds she aligned back on the right side as shown above. I tried restarted several times to nothing does not.

    My only other theory is that my Wacom tablet has been plugged during the system restore and also this problem. I have since uninstalled the driver and rebooted, but the problem is still ongoing.

  • my firefox closes when I close the window, but the process is not stopped since I got the update to firefox

    Since I upgraded to firefox 2 days ago, there a reboot problem. When I close the firefox window, it closes as it normally does, but whenever I try to restart firefox it shows the notification that firefox still works and I first need to stop the previous process before you can start a new one. Finally after I manually stop the firefox process it restarts again.

    What fixed it for me, but I am running v.15 because of other problems. I have to say I tried a hundred things and nothing works. I made the note never stop, even hours later, if I forgot to go to the Task Manager to end the process. It seems not important to know if I had extensions or modules running or not. I tried this before today. My graphics driver updated a couple of months. In any case, THANK YOU for this, finally something is going right.

  • Sometimes I want to just close ONLY a window, but Firefox closes all THE TABS, and I don't want to!

    Sometimes, I open multiple windows, especially from my box from Comcast. When I'm through with this window, I will conclude, but leave others more open. FIrefox won't do this anymore when I close the 1 window, Firefox send me a message stating that it is to CLOSE all THE TABS. I DON'T want TO CLOSE all of them, I want to just close the window I close!. This is very annoying, because I have to re - login to all, because FIrefox is 'CLOSE all THE TABS', and everything I want to do to close a window... I'm about to chuck this browser... I tried to find an answer to this in the tools, but was unable to do so. Please help me with this

    Make sure that you do not click the X close in the title bar like that closes the active window with all the tabs.

    If you have the tab bar visible then click the X close this tab or mid, tab, or use the shortcut Ctrl + W key to close the tab.

    If the resulting tab bar hidden then see:

  • Windows Firefox will not close.

    Hello
    I am running windows 8.1 and Firefox 38.0.1. whenever I click on the Red 'x' to close Firefox, Firefox will not close. If I want to close all tabs, Firefox does not close the last tab. If I try to merge windows (by dragging the tab of a window in a different window) Firefox will create a blank tab on the window where I dragged the dragged tab. So far, the only way to close the Fire Fox is click on the close button or to stop by the Task Manager. When I re - open Firefox Windows and previous tabs are also there, and I'm still not able to close them. I restarted my PC and reinstalled Firefox (uninstalled and re-download). However, after downloading Firefox... the same windows will be opened, with the same tabs! It's horrible!

    Hello cach_dies,

    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 is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

    • Click the menu button

      click Help

      then select restart with disabled modules.

    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.
    • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
    • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
      (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)

    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.

  • Firefox closes all windows

    Since the last update for Firefox, whenever I click a link on a page that opens in a new window, if I try to 'X' by this second window, it also closes the page I had just. If I manually open another window for some reason, it seems to work fine. It's only when I get a new window from one link to the other. The TWO Windows always closed. No tabs, but the windows. It is very annoying if I was done with the first page, sure I was. I even tried to minimize the second window open, then right-click in my taskbar to close, but it will always close the original window that I was in when I clicked on the link also. This has happened on MANY sites, I have visited from links.
