Right after opening Firefox, the address field only seems to have focus: Though you can see a blinking cursor you cannot type anything!

You first need to click into the address field to be able to enter the desired website.

This does not happen in other browsers - not even in Opera (which to my knowledge is based on the Firefox engine) ...

Firefox version is 50.1.0 - but this problem was also present in previous versions! Windows 10 - latest updates.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • Switch to the DEFAULT theme: "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Appearance
  • Do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Safe Mode start window
