Browser window isn't full screen

Hi, Windows 11, Firefox 106.0.1 (64-bit).

Don't know what I've done but my browser window isn't displaying the full screen. I use my laptop connected via HDMI to my television (and have been for years) along with a wireless keyboard.

Attached images include:

  • Image at 100%
  • Image at 80%
  • Scale at 150% (recommended)
  • Text setting is at 140%
  • Advanced Display Info

For whatever reason, the right side of browser windows is being clipped off. Full screen doesn't help.

  1. Changing the screen size from 100% to 80% (Ctrl -, and - again) doesn't help.
  2. The scale setting in Windows is at 150% (the recommended setting), as always.
  3. The text setting is at 140% (I can make it smaller or larger with no change in behavior), but what I can comfortably see is 140%).
  4. I've included the Advanced Display Info page from the Systems Info.

Anyway, it's probably a setting I'm unfamiliar with, but I don't know for certain. Thank you in advance.

Try to rename/remove xulstore.json in the Firefox profile folder with Firefox closed.

You can use the button on the "Help -> More Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page (Root directory).

Thank you cor-el but this did not resolve the issue.

Note; I performed the suggested actions twice. First time I deleted the xulstore.json file and the second time I just renamed it. Why? Well, on the off chance I'd get lucky. Issue persists.

I appreciate you're volunteering your time, so thank you once again.
