Hi manbear07,

we received a number of similar reports about Firefox on Win10, running in a compatibility mode with win7. Can you check compatibility settings in firefox.exe properties?

Yes, unchecking the compatibility mode allows firefox to open normally.

Looks like a widespread problem with Firefox 70s being incompatible with Win 7 Compatibility Mode or on Windows 7 system like mine.
