Upper part of screen gets "whiped out" when I minimize and then maximize browser (Firefox only).
Some of the built-in toolbars, menus, menu bar, and other parts of my screen will occasionally disappear, or parts of the browser window will "white out" when I minimize and then maximize my Firefox browser window in Windows 10. It happens only in Firefox (no other programs). I can still use the software, I just can't see what I'm pointing to. If I point to specific menu items, however, they will re-appear, one at a time, as I point to them. Usually I can restore all of my menus and toolbars by minimizing the window again, and then switching back to it using <alt><tab>. I have attached a screen shot that shows an example of this problem.

Update your Flash Player Note: Windows users should download the active_x for Internet Explorer. and the plugin for Plugin-based browsers (like Firefox).
Note: Windows 8 and Windows 10 have built-in flash players and Adobe will cause a conflict. Install the plugin only. Not the active_x.
