I have Firefox (65.0 64 bit) which is currently the latest I understand. I am afraid to re-install Firefox since I fear losing hundreds of bookmarks. I cannot find a "refresh firefox button". It is not the mouse itself since it does function properly otherwise (in my e-mail client e.g.). Thanks in advance for any help!

Strange issue. Since your not able to interact with the browser i suggest using chrome's built in bookmark importer and then fully uninstall firefox and all browsing data and reinstall it then import the bookmarks using firefox's bookmark importer and choose chrome in the list of browsers to import from.

Re-installing Firefox does not affect Firefox user data in any manner. Those "user files" are stored in a completely different location - in the Profile folder- in the operating system than here the Firefox program files are stored.
