Right Click (context menu) not working

Windows 7. Right click does nothing. I also cannot left click any of the buttons on the toolbar.

No extensions, addons or themes installed.

In safe mode, everything works as normal until I exit safe mode. If i launch Firefox as administrator, everything works.

I have refreshed, reset and reinstalled Firefox. I have created new profiles using profile manager.

Problem still persists.

Any ideas?

Hello ! Visit the site "about:support" in Firefox with the address bar. Then, click on the button "Repair Firefox" in the page and follow the instructions. I hope my answer will be satisfied! Good luck!

You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

  • Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.
