You could also try to reinstall FireFox to see if the problem persists after that.

Hello Buzzbusyz,

Thanks

We can use the information withing the CBS.log to see if SFC has found and repaired any integrity violations.
SFC found a few things and repaired them, nice. Have you also rebooted after running SFC?

Have you also ran a scan with Malwarebytes and tried reinstalling your browser?


Good luck and keep us posted,
