Cannot open the options menu on the right top to refresh firefox, the button simply doesn't react to my clicking (although it does change color!)
Hi I am having issues with my Firefox browser, when I want to do a Google search, clicking the arrow to start the search doesn't do anything. Every time I want to open my gmail, I have to sign in. This was never a Problem before! When I click on the Internet Options menu on the right top of the browser, it visibly clicks but nothing opens. What cann I do to fix this? This is really annoying....

A detail like a website remembering you (log you in automatically) is stored in a cookie.
You can use these steps to make a website recognize and remember you:
- You can create a cookie 'allow' exception to keep specific cookies, especially in case of secure websites and when cookies expire when Firefox is closed.
- Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: Exceptions
Removing cookies from a website makes the website forget about you.
In case you use "Clear history when Firefox closes" or otherwise clear history.
- do not clear the Cookies
- do not clear the Site Preferences
- clearing "Site Preferences" clears exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, and software installation and exception for password and other website specific data.
- clearing cookies will remove all selected cookies including cookies with an allow exception you want to keep.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (3-bar Menu button/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
- Switch to the DEFAULT theme: 3-bar Menu button/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
- Do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Safe Mode start window
What is your computer system and Firefox?
