firefox version 64.0 "select all" does not work in windows 8.1

more options

using Firefox on 3 computers, 1 is windows 7 home prem, other 2 are Windows 8.1 home, all Firefox 64.0, 64 bit, same problem:

open an XML table (with an accompanying xsl file), all display the the table correctly, but only in the windows 7 computer does the "Select all" work, either by right-click and pick "Select all" or Cntl-A or "Edit, Select All" ... but they all 3 work oK for "select all" on a normal webpage, this problem seems to be only on xml tables

also note: I used the same xml, xsl file on all 3 computers, but problem is not limited to one, specific xml file, I have tried this on several

FWIW, it was working ok on the windows 7 computer and Firefox 63.0.3, 64-bit before Firefox auto-updated to 64.0

thanks for any help, steve, the FloridaJayhawk

Additional info from FloridaJayhawk:

on both windows 8.1 computers described in original question: if from Firefox I "save page" as htm file, then quit Firefox and then open the just saved htm file with Firefox, the table is displayed again, as expected, only now the 'select all ' works ! (just for this htm file, still does not work on xml file)

Doesn't fix the problem, but I do have a viable workaround

Could you share a link to a document online that demonstrates this problem?

Do the Windows 8.1 systems have a touch screen vs. Windows 7 without? Just trying to think of any difference that could be related to user input devices.
