Sometimes when I minimize Firefox to the taskbar and then try to restore, it does not appear. It is in the taskbar and when I press F11 it appears as full screen, but while in full screen if I try to restore, it disappears, but is in the taskbar. If I exit and restart, it will appear for a few seconds then disappear.

System: Windows 7 Professional 64 bit

Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU 6300 @1.86 GHz 1.87.GHz

Virus Protection: Avast v6.0.137

-> Update Firefox to the latest version 10.0.1

Perform the suggestions mentioned in the following article:

Check and tell if its working.


Not related to your problem but some of your Firefox Plugins are out-dated

  • Update All your Firefox Plugins -> https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/
  • When Downloading Plugins Update setup files, Remove Checkmark from Downloading other Optional Softwares with your Plugins (e.g. Toolbars, McAfee, Google Chrome, etc.)

It is possible that the Firefox window is off-screen and not visible.

  • Use Restore or Maximize in the right-click context menu of the Taskbar icon to set focus to the Firefox application if you do not see the Firefox window.
  • Open the system menu of that Firefox window via Alt+Space and see if you can move and resize that window.

If that works then close Firefox (File > Exit/Quit) to save that setting.
