It could be because of this : Firefox 61.0b5

Try removing Flash :

Shutdown Firfox from the 3Bar Menu --> Exit Then reinstall below. Flash Player Version: 30.0.0.113 Current Version https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/ Step 1: Select Operating System Step 2: Select A Version (Firefox, . . . .) Note: Other software is offered in the download. <Windows Only>

I followed the process and the same situation, every time running my Selenium script display the Adobe icon

Then I would suggest there is a error in your script that is causing the error call for Flash.

If this is not large or it can be viewed by the public then upload it and someone may see the problem.

I notice your Wildvine is showing it is being installed. Are you having any issues with Video ? How long has it been saying it will install shortly ?

Try Firefox Safe Mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:

  • Click the menu button New Fx Menu, click Help Help-29 and select Restart with Add-ons Disabled.

If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:

  • On Windows: Hold the Shift key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
  • On Mac: Hold the option key while starting Firefox.
  • On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox -safe-mode
    (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)

When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".

SafeMode-Fx35

If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems article to find the cause.

To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.

When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.

Well, not sure exactly what error could be because it is the script trying just to display the Login page:

public class Login {

public static void main(String[] args) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub

WebDriver driver=new FirefoxDriver();

driver.get("http://devel.corp:9250/e/tt/index.jsp#");

System.out.println(driver.getTitle()); System.out.println(driver.getCurrentUrl());

               driver.switchTo().alert().dismiss();

}

}

That's it

Note that Firefox 61 is in release candidate state (61.0 build2), so make sure to update regularly. Developer Edition has moved to 62.0

I have the current Firefox version 61.0

more options

The current Firefox Release is 60.0.2 as you can see on www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ as Firefox 61.0 is not scheduled for Release until June 26.

Because it is a release candidate it behaves like a release build and thus identifies as 61.0 in "Help -> About Firefox". You can see the update channel in this window (You are currently on the beta update channel).
