The icons of important sites are shown like diagonal parted squares - why and how to reaktivate normal view?
PC-System: Windows10 pro, 64 bit Firefox version is up to date
Look to the attached picture and see the diagonal parted symbols. So how can I setup firefox to show the icons in a usual way?
Thanks for your help. FHirrle
Die Symbole für "wichtige Seiten" in einem neuen Tag erscheinen viergeteilt. Kann mir jemand sagen, warum Firefox das macht und wie ich es abstellen kann? Die Funktion ist dadurch nicht beeinträchtigt, nur das "look & feel". Danke für eure Hilfe. FHirrle

What theme are you using? Try switching to the default.
I'm using the default theme.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link}
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
In safe-mode it looks normal, restart firefox in normal mode, it appears in diagonal parted.

The latest FireFox is the 66.0.1 version.
What are all your Extensions - including Active and Inactive?

It could be the work of one of your add-ons, or it could be Hardware Acceleration. How to disable Hardware Acceleration {web link}
Type about:addons<enter> in the address bar to open your Add-ons Manager. Hot key; <Control> (Mac=<Command>) <Shift> A)
In the Add-ons Manager, on the left, select Extensions. Disable a few add-ons, then Restart Firefox.
Some added toolbar and anti-virus add-ons are known to cause Firefox issues. Disable All Of them.
If the problem continues, disable some more (restarting FF). Continue until the problem is gone. After, you know what group is causing the issue. Re-enable the last group ONE AT A TIME (restarting FF) until the problem returns.
Once you think you found the problem, disable that and re-enable all the others, then restart again. Let us know who the suspect is, detective.
