How to Take out a Windows Screen?
Hi Daylightdon, if you have the problem where the Firefox window is too tall and covers the Window task bar, I don't think the cause for that has been identified. One user attributed it to using the Windows Magnifier, but it might occur in other scenarios.
To shorten the height of a Firefox window manually, you can use the control menu. With Firefox active, press this key combination:
Alt+Spacebar
Then choose Size and press the down arrow once - this selects the bottom border for movement. Then press the up arrow repeatedly until it clears the task bar. Then press Enter to complete the resizing.
Firefox remember the size of the last closed window, so if you have other tall windows, close those first before closing the resized one.
Alternately, you can clear the settings file that stores the incorrect window height. Unfortunately, this also clears your toolbar customizations, so hopefully this won't be necessary. Here's how:
Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using
Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
Switch back to Firefox and Exit
Pause while Firefox finishes its cleanup, then rename localstore.rdf to something like localstore.old
Restart Firefox and the standard window size should be used.
