When i go into Twitch.tv to watch a stream i see in the top right corner that the lock has a red line over it, when i click on it i says "You have not given this website any special rights". I have tried reinstalling firefox i have clear all the settings and remove cache and cockies but it doesn't help whatsoever.. I've never had this problem and apparently no one else have. All the other websites work like they used to.

I assume you are looking at the lock icon because something on the site is not working correctly? Rather than focus on the lock -- which sounds like it's telling you that it's not a secure connection and default permissions are being applied -- could you describe the problem you're having with the site?

One thought: your plugins list* does not show that Flash is active. If this is a new installation of Windows 10, you might need to install the Flash plugin. You can download the installer from Adobe's site:

https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/

* The list appears next to your question in the Question Details section under "More System Details"
