Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1403951

(Core :: Graphics, defect)

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:57.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/57.0
Build ID: 20170920135025

Steps to reproduce:

Downloaded the latest nightly build as of 28 Sep 2017 11:30 PM
Running Windows 7 Professional.
I open Nightly.


Actual results:

The icon appears on my taskbar but the window is a no-show, hovering over it using aero peek shows the window has no contents. Attempting to bring it to the foreground in task manager did nothing. It just unfocused all the other windows.


Expected results:

The window should have opened and should have been visible after trying to bring it into the foreground using task manager.

Pretty certain this is a dupe of bug 1403951.

I reinstalled nightly today and it's working now. Totally forgot safe mode was a thing. I'll remember this for next time. :D
