When I open the program the taskbar shows it as open. If I open several copies all of the copies are shown as open - including ones on separate windows. Clicking a URL in another program opens a window in Firefox but it, too is off-screen but shows on my taskbar as open, including the small icon showing what screens/windows are open. Note it is version 6.0. Prior versions worked.

-> Tap ALT key or press F10 to show the Menu Bar Menu Bar shows Firefox is running. -> Press F11 to bring Firefox out of FullScreen Pressing F11 has no effect. When Firefox is in FullScreen it is not displayed - the screen appears to be off to the right of my screen (off-stage right) and when reduced to being on the taskbar it only shows as an ICON when the curser is placed on it. Clicking it opens another ICON. Clicking on the ICON should open the program to FullScreen. It appears to do so but "off-stage right".

-> go to Help Menu -> select "Restart with Add-ons Disabled" Would like to but I can't get to the Firefox HELP menu. Only can see the ICON. Firefox will close then it will open up with just basic Firefox. Now do this:

-> Update ALL your Firefox Plug-ins https://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/ Reloaded 4.1 beta. Still didn't work. Downloaded an applied FIX 6.0 to version 4.1 beta. No fix to the 'off stage right' problem.

All other programs including Mozilla Thunderbird appear to be loading and displaying correctly.

Mike here. Still didn't work, but closer. At least opened in Safe Mode.

->Update ALL your Firefox Plug-ins https://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/ Plugcheck- updated several plug-ins but also have several which are listed as "not recognized" and don't have the option to update or delete. Do I need to track each down and try updating from the source?

-> click the Favicon (small drop down menu icon) on Firefox SearchBar (its position is on the Right side of the Address Bar) -> click "Manage Search Engines" -> select all Unwanted Search Engines and click Remove -> click OK Well, one plugin appears to still be running. I still have a Google searchbar not the FireFox SearchBar, and the FireFox options are not listed when the Google drop down menu icon is clicked instead of the non-existent Favicon

-> go to Tools Menu -> Add-ons -> Extensions section -> REMOVE All Unwanted/Suspicious Extensions (Add-ons) -> Restart Firefox I deleted several but some of the Add-ons only have a disable/enable button and some have NO buttons. These are disabled and listed as not compatible with the current version of FireFox.

You can enable your Known & Trustworthy Add-ons later. Check and tell if its working.

Not working except in Safe Mode.

Can you attach Screenshots of the Extensions, Appearance & Plugins sections (Tools Menu -> Add-ons)

more options

Made pictures and will try to add images.

Looks like that worked.

Mike

P.S. I have to open the Windows Task Manager to close FireFox in normal mode, sometimes.

more options

Extensions Screenshot not here. You uploaded Plugins screenshot TWICE.


Did you take the screenshots when you were in Safe Mode?? because all of them are Disabled.

This fixed the problem. Thanks. Corrupt file localstore.rdf appears to have been the problem.

Boots normally and I can 'see' it.

Thanks for the tip, cor-el. In my case I had to delete sessionstore.js to resolve. After deleting sessionstore.js, Firefox launched on-screen in a very small window in the top-left corner of my display. I was able to resize, maximize and close the window normally. After that, no issues.

This issue is definitely profile-specific in my case, so if deleting localstore.rdf or sessionstore.js doesn't resolve for others, you could always create a new Firefox profile as a last resort.
