in safe mode works fine ??

It could be the work of one of your add-ons, or it could be Hardware Acceleration. How to disable Hardware Acceleration {web link}

Type about:addons<enter> in the address bar to open your Add-ons Manager. Hot key; <Control> (Mac=<Command>) <Shift> A)

In the Add-ons Manager, on the left, select Extensions. Disable a few add-ons, then Restart Firefox.

Some added toolbar and anti-virus add-ons are known to cause Firefox issues. Disable All Of them.

If the problem continues, disable some more (restarting FF). Continue until the problem is gone. After, you know what group is causing the issue. Re-enable the last group ONE AT A TIME (restarting FF) until the problem returns.

Once you think you found the problem, disable that and re-enable all the others, then restart again. Let us know who the suspect is, detective.

unfortunately tried everything but still. the only it seems to work is if you go restart addons disabled and start in safe mode, refreshing firefox does nothing, addons now are disappearing from my toolbar haha, when i reinstalled firefox lol, prob didnt like the fact i switched to brave and chrome and now back to firefox, its not a big issue but is annoying because i have to manually go to maps subheading in google search instead of just clicking the right side street view or photos to bring up pictures? dont know if its a addon problem as have tried disabling it removing and still no success, is anyone else having this issue, i do have an old pc with a graphics card but ive had issue with the drivers so always say no to use onboard graphics in browsers

thats my results as per below , any ideas the pics below were on fresh install firefox no addons installed? so why does it only work in safe mode, soo weird and not in normal mode haha.

thanks guys

Can you post your troubleshooting information ?

You can check the Web Console for possible error messages.


If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing the problem by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.

Close and restart Firefox after each change via one of these:

  • "3-bar" menu button -> Exit (Power button)
  • Windows: File -> Exit
  • Mac: Firefox -> Quit Firefox
  • Linux: File -> Quit

Did you try to disable hardware acceleration?

Are you using a userContent.css or userChrome.css file in the profile folder?
