Before the latest firefox updates, I was able to open a few windows at a time. since the updates were installed I can only get one window at a time to operate as they should.

Hi, sorry to hear that. Please try this quick fix if works : Please : uninstall Firefox. Then Delete the Mozilla Firefox Folders in C:\Program Files , C:\Program Files(x86) & C:\ProgramData Then restart system. Then run Windows Disk Cleanup. (Note: This should be Pinned and run Weekly, If never done below expect 10's of gig's) Then run it again and click the button that says Cleanup System Files. Note: your Firefox Profile is saved. But you should make a back up before you do :

Reinstall with Current Release Firefox 59.0 with a Full Version Installer

Your Flash version 27 is a security risk please update. Flash Player Version: 29.0.0.113 Current Version https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/ Step 1: Select Operating System Step 2: Select A Version (Firefox, . . . .) Note: Other software is offered in the download. <Windows Only>

Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.

I've seen a case where Advanced SystemCare was blocking additional windows, so if you use this software then check its settings

Boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support to see if that has effect in case other installed software is causing problems.
