In the last week many of the interactive websites I've been using for years suddenly stopped working properly. However they do work with Internet Explorer. How can I get them to work again with Firefox?

The diagnostic extension you ran (thank you) reports that your currently active personal settings folder (your Firefox profile folder) contains a user.js file. This file can be used to override your settings. Let's try taking that file out of the equation.

Open your current Firefox profile folder using

Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button

Scroll down to user.js and rename it to something like user_js.old

Hopefully then when you restart Firefox your preferences will stick.

orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Content


Can you give examples of some interactivity that isn't working, i.e., a URL and steps to re-create the problem?

In what way are those websites not working?

Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.

"Clear the Cache":

  • Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"

"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:

  • Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window or otherwise make changes.
