All of a sudden, I can only get FF to run as a maximized window - otherwise it is minimized and I can't seem to get it to run with a sizeable window?? I'm on a Windows box and this just all of a sudden started this morning. At a hotel so on a pub network also.

Any ideas how I can get FF window size to act normally again??? Thanks

this went on for several hours but, after my post here, on a fluke, I went and deleted cookies ... WHY that would have anything to do with anything I have no idea - but after restarting the browser, all cleared up. Sorry for the bother.

If you have enabled "Resist Fingerprinting", set this pref on the about:config page to false to disable this feature.

Try to rename/remove xulstore.json in the Firefox profile folder with Firefox closed.

You can use the button on the "Help -> More Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page (Root directory).
