For the past several months the browser back key sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. It always works in Chrome and IE, but not Firefox. I have to right-click on the left arrow and scroll to the page I want. There doesn't seem to be rhyme or reason and it happens randomly, no specific website. Why is that and can it be fixed?

Separate Security Issue, please update your Flash 28.0 r0 by removing it with this tool : https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-windows.html If you use it Reinstall with Flash Player Version: 30.0.0.134 Current Version https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/ Step 1: Select Operating System Step 2: Select A Version (Firefox, . . . .) Note: Other software is offered in the download. <Windows Only>

Hi, give this a try : uninstall Firefox. Then Delete the Mozilla Firefox Folders in C:\Program Files , C:\Program Files(x86) & C:\ProgramData Then restart system. Then run Windows Disk Cleanup. (Note: This should be Pinned and run Weekly, If never done below expect 10's of gig's) Then run it again and click the button that says Cleanup System Files. Note: your Firefox Profile is saved. But you should make a back up before you do :

Reinstall with Current Release Firefox 61.0.1 with a Full Version Installer

Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.

I don't know. I see this a few times here and there. Sometimes the 'Back Arrow' is faded and doesn't show at all where I just was. If needed, I'll click on History to view the 'Recent History' drop-down box to find what I need.
