Refresh after Windows10 looks like old Firefox; all FF pages look "safe mode" and other issues.
Hello,
I recently downloaded Windows 10 and noticed FF going really slow. So somehow I refreshed it. I knew it would erase certain bits of data, but I am now unable to reset things.
It looks like an older version. When I go to any FF page, everything appears in a list. I can't choose a new theme, for example, b/c the Mozilla page can't show graphics. Also, I'm typing this in Chrome b/c there's no text box when I open this page in FF. I do not want to go back to Chrome.
Thank you!

That fixed it. I would never have figured that out. Thanks so much!
