WHEN I TRY TO INSTALL FIREFOX IT SHOWS UP TOO LARGE TO FIT MY SCREEN. I'VE REPEATEDLY TRYED TO REDUCE THE SIZE ONLY TO HAVE IT GO BACK TO THE LARGE SIZE. WHAT DO I DO BECAUSE I USED TO HAVE FIRFOX AND I REALLY LIKED IT !

Could you explain this a little more. When you say it's TOO LARGE TO FIT MY SCREEN do you mean that the Firefox window goes off the edge of the display so part of it is missing? Or do you mean the Firefox window causes the screen resolution to change to giant fonts and toolbars so you can hardly see any content?

Let me start with the second problem. That can be caused by a compatibility setting on the Firefox shortcut. If you reinstall Firefox, right-click the desktop shortcut, click Properties, then click Compatibility. Make sure everything is clear:

If you have the first problem, try maximizing the Firefox window. If you cannot see the top bar and the maximize button, press this combination on the keyboard:

Alt + Spacebar

A small menu will drop from the upper left of the Firefox window. Click Maximize. Does that work? If so, great, next step to come if you say it's relevant.


Also, when you write I'VE REPEATEDLY ASKED YOU PEOPLE, where is that? This appears to be your first post under this username. How did you submit your question before?

If you are talking about a zoom issue,

Check your zoom controls.
