How do I get back to normal mode from safe mode and enable add ons again?
I switched to safe mode to disable a few add-ons, but now I want to go back to normal mode. How do I do that?

Firefox will open normally as long as you do not click the Safe mode link in the Start menu.
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
- Use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window to disable all extensions.
- Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
>In Firefox 4 Safe mode also disables plugins (Tools > Add-ons > Plugins) and hardware acceleration (Tools > Options > Advanced > General)
