left mouse click not working on firefox 61.0.2. When searching e.g. cars and switching to the images tag the left mouse click will not open the hyperlinks. What is going on?

Tried safe-mode, same result, hyperlinks still do not open on left click. Have to right click and select open link in new tab or click mouse wheel which opens link in new tab, but then I have to select that new tab.

Hi, if using a Microsoft Mouse and or Keyboard please look at the bottom of each for the model number. Go Search and type in Microsoft Mouse & Keyboard C enter and update your mouse drivers. Info : https://www.microsoft.com/accessories/en-ca/downloads/mouse-keyboard-center

If above does not work after a reboot 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 61.0.2 with a Full Version Installer

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