I recently had to disable and enable all add-ons on Firefox. Now when I google something, when I hover over the website preview and click 'cached' it won't highlight the key terms anymore. How can I fix this?

Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.

"Clear the Cache":

  • Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"

"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:

  • Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Thanks, but it won't let me clear the cache. When I click, nothing happens, so cannot progress any further. Safe Mode makes no differnce either :/
