Firefox opens with a very low resolution, overfills the screen, and pixelates. I can't find anywhere to change the resolution. I believe that I made the mistake in a setting, but can't find how to undo it. Uninstalling and reinstalling doesn't change the problem. The rest of my screen and programs are fine. Please help.

Right-click on the shortcut used to launch Firefox and select Properties. Go to the Compatibility tab and make sure that none of the options are selected. Repeat this for the firefox.exe file, normally found inside this folder on 64 bit Windows - C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\
