Firefox start on Windows 11

  • பதில்கள் இல்லை
  • 0 இந்த பிரச்னைகள் உள்ளது

Hello, I have installed the latest Firefox on my Windows 11 desktop PC. I have created a shortcut to Firefox in the start menue Since a few week, I observed that I had to invoce Firefox twice in order to get is running once. The same happens if I double-click on firefox.exe in the intallation folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox): After the first double-click, the windows activity circle appears for a few seconds and then dissapears again (without staring Firefox). After the second double-click, Firefox starts immediately.

I can repeat this several times.

  • first double click > nothing happens
  • second double click > Firefox starts
  • closing Firefox
  • third double click > nothing happens
  • fourth double click > Firefox starts
  • closing Firefox
  • fifth/seventh/... double click > nothing happens
  • sixth/eigth/.. double click > Firefox starts

I have no idea what might have gone wrong. Any suggestion from the community is appreciated. Best,
