Firefox keeps opening as a minimized window
Whenever I open up Firefox it always opens as a minimized window. It seems like nothing at first but when I'm constantly opening and closing Firefox it's gotten annoying enough that I'm looking to fix it. I tried following the instructions recommended here https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1118937 but to no avail. I tried looking through about:preferences but can't find anything. Any suggestions?

On Windows, the Properties of a desktop program shortcut includes the Run setting with the choice to start up as a Normal, Maximized, or Minimized window. Does your shell possibly have anything like that which could be awry?

Sorry, bit of a Linux noob. Could you elaborate or rephrase that?
Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link}
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
Hi. My pages won't minimize. They will in safe mode however.

Hello gbeasau,
This thread is from September last year, and I think the OP's problem is/was slightly different.
It may be best to wait for someone to take a look at your problem in your own thread :
