How do I reach my Firefox browser

For some reason my Firefox browser icon on the Start screen doesn't work any more, so how do I access my browser without the Shortcut icon? Need help desperately.

    I lose my Firefox icon every once in a while. It tends to go missing on occasion after an update. You can get it back easily by just doing a search for Firefox, then dragging the icon to your desktop. You can optionally pin it to your taskbar or start menu if you so desire.





      1. Type Firefox in Search and hit ENTER.





      2. In Search results, click on Firefox icon and drag to your Desktop.



    Can you explain how to pin it to my task bar, or even the start menu? My AT&T wireless modem went on the blink last night but after a couple of disconnects and resets it finally came back on line with the Internet. But now I don't have the little icons in the lower right corner of my screen that shows if/which Internet connection I have. I'd like to get them back if possible.

    In #2 above right click on the Firefox listing and select either/both "Pin to Taskbar" and/or "Pin to Start Menu"
  • Just FYI the latest Firefox is 45.1.0 Cant you just open the start menu showing a typed entry of the program and try that. You should be able to upgrade and not lose your Bookmarks. Good Luck
