Randomly i won't be able to use the exit or maximize/minimize buttons in the upper right hand corner. Anyone know what to do?
the minimize, maximize, and exit buttons in the upper right hand corner randomly stop working. i have tried to restart firefox in safe-mode and it still happens. I have also tried reinstalling firefox and that did not work either. anyone know a solution?

Hi,
If the problem occurs in more than one application it could be a system graphics setting, problem or similar. You can try to check by opening another application in the same position and using it for some time.
You can also try Firefox in a new profile for some time, and later also deselect Use hardware acceleration when available in Tools (Alt + T) > Options > Advanced General, restart in the new profile and check again.
Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
- Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
- https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
unfortunately neither of those solutions solved the problem. however, i did notice that it happens in other programs like internet explorer and when i use control + alt + delete and select cancel i am able to use the buttons again.
alright so i went to control panel > troubleshooting > and selected check for performance issues, did a reset and it seem to be fixed (knock on wood).
thanks for all you help guys.
and i spoke too soon, it just took longer to happen after the reset.
The Windows forum would also be helpful.
