Good afternoon,

Mozilla Firefox on Windows 7 is not working properly. When I type an URL the suggestions pop up, when I press enter to go to the website nothing happens. "Setting" does not open as well, just nothing happens. This applies to all other options of the Mozilla Firefox browser. "about: config" does not work as well. I tried opening the about.support, the page opened up but when I click on it nothing happens as well. All other browsers work with no problems. I tried: 1)Restarting PC 2) Fresh Reinstallation (3x times) 3)Adjusted the firewall rules

Start Firefox using Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode {web link}

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
