In one of the recent updates of Firefox, I think I was offered a choice of opening it in the minimized mode, and foolishly chose that. Now, every time I load Firefox, it is in the minimized mode, and I have to restore it to open it. Not a big problem, but annoying. How do I undo this setting? This only occurs on my desktop. It still opens in the viewable mode on my laptop, which is running windows 7.

Open Firefox, resize the window, close it. Open it again, now maximize it. Or do your settings via pressing 'alt' button, at the top select 'view' and do your choice..
