OK, this morning when I opened FF, it started up with maximized window. Now when I open FF, it shows the maximized window for about a second or so, and then automatically becomes smaller? I have not made any changes to the settings, so I have no idea why it happens. It is a small issue, but it is annoying.

Made it a bit smaller and edited my previous post.
The problem is solved by Cyberbots brother so to speak.
Turns out I had a fingerprinting setting on true somehow,
and this made FF use a normal size window so to speak. Setting it from true to false solved it. -
* i dont use firefox, maybe ask ?
If you don't use Firefox, it might be more beneficial to ask about the browser you do use. Each browser has its own strengths and weaknesses, and getting advice tailored to your specific needs will be more effective. If you have any questions about a different browser, feel free to ask.

This issue could be caused by a few different factors. First, try checking if any extensions are interfering with Firefox's normal behavior—start Firefox in Safe Mode to see if the problem persists. If it doesn't, an extension may be the culprit.
Another possibility is a problem with your user profile. You can create a new profile to see if that resolves the issue. Lastly, consider updating or reinstalling Firefox if the problem continues, as it could be a glitch in the current installation.
