Windows 7. Dowload complete, but when I click on icon, I only get a google homepage and google toolbar. Never a Firefox page or toolbar.

I installed Firefox successfully yesterday. But when I click on the icon, the only page that comes up is a google home page with a google toolbar. No firefox visible at all as page or toolbar. Can't figure it out. Current browser in Explorer and I have a windows 7 operating system on a desktop.

Hi druddock,
Is Firefox in fullscreen mode? Try hitting F11 to see if the toolbar and navigation bar are just hidden. If you see a small ''Firefox'' button in the corner, hit ''Alt'' and go to ''view > toolbars'' and enable the ''Navigation toolbar'' and the ''Bookmarks toolbar''. The [[Back and forward or other toolbar items are missing]] article also has some good information in it.
You should take a look at the Knowledge Base article [[How to set the home page]] and try setting your homepage to ''about:home''. This is the default Firefox homepage.
If that doesn't work you should look at the article [[Preferences are not saved]]. If you've upgraded from 3.6, you might also want to look at [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/common-questions-after-upgrading-firefox-36#os this article with common questions after upgrading].
Hopefully this helps!
