Downloaded Firefox and installed on a new Acer laptop with Windows 11 as I do not really like Edge. Did what needed to get it installed and running. Seemed it was good, but when I try to open Firefox, it just does not work. I cannot even access the setting tab. It opens to a tab, and when I try to enter anything in the address bar, it shows no load arrow and hitting enter does nothing either. I have tried uninstall and re-install and cleared all Mozilla and Firefox files when re-installing.

Tried that and still nothing. Not sure what is wrong, but I have never had this issue before. I have installed it on other laptops and desktops with no issues.
