Why can't you fix having to refresh Firefox every time I open it to be able to add attachment to email?

Every time I open Firefox and go to my e-mail, I am unable to attach a file to new e-mail.

I click on the paper clip and nothing happens.

If I quit Firefox, I have to go through the same thing every time I start it.

I've given up customizing my preferences. It's not worth it.

Yes, I am in Outlook Web App. (I don't know what Thunderbird is.)

Also, I am on a Mac Pro running OS El Capitan.

I have already tried all of these. None of them worked.

I ended up installing Silverlight. This seems to have solved the problem for now.

What I don't understand is why, after using Firefox and OWA for years, all of a sudden, I have to install another application just to be able to attach files to an e-mail.

To be certain, you are talking about using Firefox to access your e-mail provider, and not Thunderbird?

If there is still a problem, Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). While you are in safe mode;
