Firefox Tooltips and context menu unreadable
Hi, for some reason Firefox is making it impossible to see the tooltip bar or context menu, but I can see it clearly on other browsers, as seen in the attached images. I've disabled my dark reader, set my system's default theme to light, installed other Browser themes, and nothing changes it. Any help is appreciated.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link}
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
Yes, the problem remains while in Safe Mode.
Let’s do a full clean re-install;
Note: Firefox comes in three or more folders on all computers. They are;
Maintenance: (Programs Folder) <Windows Only> Firefox itself: (Programs Folder) And two folders in the profile of each user on the computer for each Firefox profile for that user.
If you remove the Firefox folder, the user profiles would not be affected.
Download Firefox For All languages And Systems {web link}
Save the file. Then Close Firefox.
Using your file browser, open the Programs Folder on your computer.
Windows: C:\Program Files C:\Program Files (x86) Note: Check Both Folders
Mac: Open the "Applications" folder. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-download-and-install-firefox-mac
Linux: Check your user manual. If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it. See Install Firefox on Linux; https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/install-firefox-linux

I've attempted all you have said, as well as going into safe mode, and the issue still persists. I may just move to another browser for the time being, because my eyes are strained from trying to see the menus.
I called for more help.
Start your Computer in safe mode with network support.
Then start Firefox.
Try Secure websites. Is the problem still there?
