Hi !

Have you updated Firefox ? Can you give me the version of Firefox and your OS please ? Have you done a special operation wich can be the cause of our problem ?

Thank you !

I am on version 44.0.2, which is the latest. I don't know if I can force an update without reinstalling an possibly losing data. I am running Windows 7 SP 1, 32 bit. The only thing that may be causing it is the enhanced steam addon, which was discontinued for Firefox a long time ago, but it never gave me problems before.
