I just need to know how to "close" firefox.
I am hitting the red X in the upper right hand corner of my screen and although it seems to close everything, when i go to reopen firefox, it says its already open. I need to know how to close the firefox out completely....I dont want to delete it, just close.
Chosen solution
The X on the title bar just closes that one window as it does not close the Firefox browser unless that was the only window for anything Firefox related open.
To close Firefox completely go to "File->Exit" if Menu bar is visible or by orange Firefox button -> Exit.

Your computer may simply be slow to close the program, so you may want to wait a bit longer before attempting to relaunch. If not, close the application through the Task Manager (ctrl-alt-del). Again, you may need to wait a moment.
wont "control alt delete" restart my p.c.?
