Firefox won't show Google Maps satellite view in Win10, unless I am logged into administrator account. Then it works fine.

When I log into Windows 10 as a Standard User, Google Maps works fine using Firefox in map view, but it goes black when I select satellite view and won't reset. Firefox works correctly when I log into Windows 10 as an administrator, or if I log into Google maps using Internet Explorer.
