Awake windows 10 PC from sleep tabs won't open or reload
Each evening i put my PC to sleep......Firefox is open and several tabs are usually open. In the morning when i awaken the PC the Firefox tabs won't open....they also won't reload. I have tried closing Firefox and re-opening it again.....doesn't work....tabs don't open....the little arrow goes left to right. The only solution i have found is to close Firefox and restart the PC. Once restarted Firefox tabs usually open. It is a pain to have to restart the PC every time as you can imagine Can you please look into this Thanks!

uninstall Firefox. Then Delete the Mozilla Firefox Folders in C:\Program Files and C:\Program Files(x86) Then restart system. Then run Windows Disk Cleanup. (Note: This should be Pinned and run Weekly, If never done below expect 10's of gig's) Then run it again and click the button that says Cleanup System Files. Note: your Firefox Profile is saved. But you should make a back up before you do :

Windows 10 To run the DISM command use the Windows key + X keyboard shortcut to open the Power User menu, then select Command Prompt (Admin). Type "DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth" (without quotes or copy/paste) and press Enter. Goes online for new files from MS. Reboot After.

Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.
Thank you for responding to my request for help. I followed your instructions and unfortunately my problem still exists. I have installed the latest version 57.0.4. I am sure you will understand i need a working browser to do my job. I have had to download Google Chrome and imported my bookmarks from Firefox. I have also installed my add ons to Chrome. I would very much like to continue using Firefox as my default browser. Please let me know if you have a fix
