Hello there,

This may be caused by the large amount of visited sites and as a result this can slow down Firefox on launch/start.

Can you please try to clean your browsing history and cookies by doing the following:

1. Click the menu button, choose "History", and then "Clear Recent History 2. Select how much history you want to clear ( Everything is recommended) 3. Finally, click the "Clear Now" button.

If none of the above work then I would suggest to reinstall Firefox and see if that solves the issue.

Keep us posted!
