When I go to Mozilla Firefox, I can't see everything on the screen because it is zoomed in to much. When I go to view and zoom out, it zooms out but when I go to armorgames, part of the games I play are cut off so I can't see everything on the game. Plus, it just zooms back in when I leave Firefox and get back on. It wasn't always like that though. I want to know if I can set the default view to normal so I can see everything on the screen without having to scroll left and right, or having part of games cut off.

Hi lilmikrymike15,
If you use View > Zoom > Reset, does the zoom level reset to the expected size?

To set your default zoom level you usually need an add-on. Have you tried installing one named Default FullZoom Level or another named NoSquint?
Tools > Add-ons > Extensions category
You can also try disabling Firefox's use of hardware accelerated graphics. In order for this to take effect you usually need to restart Firefox.
Go to Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > General and uncheck the box for "Use hardware acceleration when available" If you restart Firefox, is the clarity improved?
Hope i have helped!
