Why won't firefox open in more than one window?
For about a month, Firefox has been giving me problems. I can open one window successfully, but if I try to open another window (be it through double clicking, or right clicking and selecting run, or even something tricky like trying to open one of my tabs in another window) then Firefox will not do anything. It's like it completely ignores any requests to open another window. I've tried reinstalling and updating Firefox, but it haven't had any effect. Also, since that problem occurred there have been a few other bugs. Sometimes the quick search Google tool in the upper right hand corner will refuse to respond, sometimes when I am playing the kingdom of loathing all drop down boxes will refuse to respond, and sometimes Firefox will still think it is running after I close it, and because it has limited me to one window for some reason, I am unable to run Firefox again until I manually stop the Firefox process in the task manager's processes tab. The weirdest thing is that this bug seems to be user-specific. I can't open more than window of Firefox, but the other users on this computer seem to be able to do this just fine.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
- Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Wow, that worked! Thanks so much!
