So I wanted to use firefox as default browser, and I go to log into my gmail and it locks me into a screen for enabling cookies... NOt happy. The instructions are to go to settings in Chrome menu, I do not want chrome I want regular google like I have always used. I cannot enable cookies because I do not have an account. Drop down menu from upper right corner of my screen does not have a area for support / privacy settings/ enable cookies etc etc with what ever it was trying to get me to do to enable cookies. Ok now I have to create a account. NOPE cannot do that because still locked into the enable cookies screen undid firefox from laptop but if try to reinstall get same darn message %$##

Please provide a screenshot of that screen.


See this support article. How do I create a screenshot of my problem? It is best to use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot and make sure that you do not exceed a maximum file size of 1 MB.

Then use the Browse .... button below the Post a Reply text box to upload the screenshot.
