Firefox - I give up.

[Jade Tigress]

Well, firefox somehow got into "safe mode". Anyone know how to fix it?

Kaith, am I seeing a Support FireFox link in the ad at the bottom of the page because of you, or is it playing games on me?

Safe mode--that's a windows thing. Try shutting down and rebooting, I'd say.

Actually, Firefox should have its own Safe Mode.

Eh, you know I don't pay attention!

FireFox has a Safe Mode? What for? Safe browsing, by hiding info.?

To avoid BTDs. :uhyeah:

I still don't know how to get this thing out of safe mode. I think I'll give it one more shot by uninstalling, running a disk cleanup, rebooting and reinstalling. Anything else I should do?

 

[Bob Hubbard]

I can't find any reference to safe mode. ??

Have you used a version of the Mozilla suite before, or had themes and/or extensions with a previous version of Firefox?

Safe Mode basically runs Firefox with all themes and extensions disabled. Perhaps there's an old extension or theme that's b0rking your installation.

Try making sure any old profiles are deleted:
