The back button only works if I double click it, how do I fix this?

Every time I go to youtube and I'm listening to music, I go to search another song (the problem also applies to other pages and not just youtube) when I try to click back to go to the previous song I was listening to, it loads the page that I wanted to go back from. Ie: Let's say I was listening to Escalators and I wanted to go listen to Hearts and Spades, so I click back, and it just reloads Escalators instead of taking me back. It only takes me back to the previous page when I double click the back button.

This article wasn't helpful at all! It was just explaining what was on the toolbar. I need to know how to fix just one specific thing on the toolbar, not learn about it.

Yes. It still doesn't work.

Hello,

This happens in Safe Mode:

Try unhide the hidden files and folders:

Then go to your profile folder:

Close Firefox.

Delete the localstore.rdf file, this action will reset the Firefox layout!

Actually, now it's not working again.

This sounds like a problem caused by an extension.

How did you solve it the previous time?
