I upgraded Firefox, and now my computer won't go into sleep mode after a while, plus my fan stays running louder than normal, I shut it down, but when it boots back up, it doesn't load like it used to, adding all my icons like before. I have to shut it down after i use it as it will not go into sleep and then shut down automatically like it used to!! Please help, thank you,

Separate Security Issue: Update your Flash Player Note: Windows users should download the ActiveX for Internet Explorer. and the plugin for Plugin-based browsers (like Firefox).

Note: Windows 8 and Windows 10 have built-in flash players and Adobe will cause a conflict. Install the plugin only. Not the ActiveX.

Flash Player Version: Version 27.0.0.159
