For some reason Firefox automatically put me in private browsing setting when I open it. I try closing the private browsing but the option is greyed out. And the problem is I am not even sure if I am really in private browsing since it does not indicate in my browser, it just keep signing me off my FB, Google, etc... Please help!

Hi Firefly4u,

Have you looked at Tools > Options > Privacy? There is a setting in there that will tel Firefox to always start in Private Browsing mode. If that is selected, just turn it off and restart Firefox to see if that fixed the issue.

You can find more information on the settings in this tab in the Knowledge Base article Settings for privacy, browsing history and do-not-track.

Hopefully this helps!
