Suluhisho teule

Turns out not to be a Firefox issue at all. Somehow, Windows 10 was reinstalled and so everything was gone. Thankfully I was able to restore back to Dec 10 so no real harm done. Thank you for your time.

That was very good work. Well Done. Please flag your last post as Solved Problem as this can help others with similar problems.
