I have a Lenovo laptop on which the browsers are not working properly. About 90% of the time firefox opens to a completely blank white box. About 80% of the time Edge opens to a white box with a url box at the top. Re-booting will sometimes allow me to open them but they quickly go back to white boxes. My initial thought was that firefox was corrupt but a refresh of firefox didnt help and no matter what I try, I cannot un-install firefox in order to do a fresh install.

 

Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated. Another post on geekstogo suggested flushing the dns cache so i did that but it didnt help.

 

Thank you in advance!

 

Multiple strange things happening with this laptop. Most recently, nothing happened when I hit the start button. Had to ctrl/alt/del in order to shut down the laptop.

The reason behind firefox crashing could be outdated version of firefox or might be the version of Windows you are using need an update.
