I had been having trouble with ASK.com and trying to get rid of it. I went through various steps. My desktop, all of a sudden, changed orientation from upright to inclined to the right. This happened yesterday all of a sudden. I need to have my desktop changed back.

Ctrl + Alt + LeftArrow : places the "logical" top of the screen at the left edge, so rotated 90 degrees to the left

Ctrl + Alt + RightArrow : places the "logical" top of the screen at the right edge, so rotated 90 degrees to the right

Ctrl + Alt + UpArrow : places the "logical" top of the screen back at the physical top

Is that what is happening on yours?

After the problem is fixed, Bookmark and use this; Download the Mozilla Search Reset {web link} This add-on is very simple: on installation, it backs up and then resets your search preferences and home page to their default values, and then uninstalls itself.
