Title: Latest Firefox Update=More Problems Post by: Karabiner on July 20, 2012, 10:29:01 AM Following yesterday's update on my PC when I fired it up today all of the icons on my desktop are almost double the size, and so are the tabs at the top of my page.
It's as though the page has gone ito widescreen as if I simply press ctrl/+ it reduces but doesn't fill the screen. I've tried looking in "tools" and in "look and layout" with no success. Any suggestions on how I can get it to revert back to it's old self? Is it possible to simply undo the update?

That won't have had any affect on the icons on your desktop.
Sounds like you've got the wrong screen resolution for your monitor. Have you tried right-clicking the desktop and changing the 'Screen Resolution'?

As Kin says, just change back the resolution.
