Full Screen Does Not Come Back After Minimizing Firefox to the Taskbar.

I work in full screen almost exclusively ... the toolbar and the URL are still displayed while in full screen.

Before this version (30.0), when I minimized Firefox to the taskbar so that I could go to the desktop or to Windows Explorer, when I finished what I was doing and re-selected Firefox it would go back to full screen. Now, it does not go back to full screen. I can still see the taskbar. I have to press [f11] two more times to get back to full screen.

I have tried with and without addons enabled. Same behavior. I have reset Firefox ... same behavior.

I'm using Firefox 30.0 and Windows 7 (64 bit).

Thanks.

Hi moose53, Just tested it with a Logitech keyboard and you are right, what you are describing is not expected behavior. I see you do not have any add ons, however does this also reproduce in Safe Mode? Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode

If yes, try a new profile Profile Manager - Create, remove or switch Firefox profiles
