The exit menu doesn't work

Hello, I have the problem that when trying to exit the browser using the 'Exit' option from the menu (the menu that opens when you press the button with 3 horizontal lines in the top right corner of the browser) it doesn't work, it's not even clickable. When I hover over it with the mouse, the hover effect is visible, but clicking it does absolutely nothing.

Despite this, the other alternatives for closing the browser still work:

  • Ctrl + q
  • Clicking the 'x' on the window
  • Alt + F4

What causes this problem? Is there a solution?

Regards, and thank you very much in advance.

Gracias GerardoPcp04 por la respuesta.

Solucioné el problema instalando Firefox desde los archivos de Mozilla.

Haciendo los pasos señalados aquí me di cuenta que el error del botón salir solo se presenta en las versiones instaladas de Firefox mediante el gestor de paquetes, ya sea la que viene por defecto en la distribución del OS o la .deb de Mozilla.

Espero que sea un bug temporal de esta versión de Firefox ya que siempre he preferido la instalación a través del gestor de paquetes.

Reitero mis agradecimientos GerardoPcp04.

Saludos.
