hello, please try to reset firefox and see if this can address the issue...
otherwise please also run a scan of your system for malware with the various tools recommended at Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware
Makes no difference resetting mozillia tried uninstal re=install no change..
There is software like Advanced SystemCare with its Surfing Protection feature that can protect files in the Firefox profile folder against changes. If you have such software then check the settings or uninstall this software.
Boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.
Do a malware check with several malware scanning programs on the Windows computer. Please scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. All these programs have free versions.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.
