  1. In Firefox, type about:support into the address bar and press Enter.
  2. Click the Show Folder button. A Windows Explorer window opens.
  3. Right-click the Firefox taskbar icon and choose either Close All Windows or Close Window.
  4. In the Windows Explorer window that opened earlier, delete the localstore.rdf file.
  5. If you have Firefox pinned to the taskbar, right-click the taskbar icon, then right-click the Firefox icon in the menu that pops up and choose Properties.
    • If you have a desktop shortcut, simply right-click it and choose Properties.
  6. Click the Shortcut tab in the Properties window.
  7. Make sure Run is set to "Normal window".
