What's about the suddenly extremely long right mouse-click menu?
Suddenly, since the latest update (20.0.1) my right-click menu is terribly LONG. It's filled with things that seem useful, but are not to be and are not necessary at all. E.g. it contains video-control options, like mute and play, go full screen.
More weird and worse above this is: absolutely nothing in that same menu works or does anything. I
Here is a screen capture of it. It is the regular menu, randomly clicked, which appears everywhere. http://s23.postimg.org/ur0zwg4bf/regrigclibar.png
What's about this? Bug? I think anyway it is broken and needs to be solved.

Issues with a massive right-click context menu have been reported as caused by Firebug, so make sure to update Firebug to the latest version.

I have the most recent Firebug version (1.11.3) and still experienced this issue. What I did was: - disabled Firebug, - restarted Firefox (everything was fine again after doing this), - re-enabled Firebug (still fine).
Yay!
Firebug is NOT the (sole) culprit/solution. Never had it. This problem is associated with the ONLY change - Upgraded to 20 without it and got huge menu. Installed it, disabled it, re-enabled it, uninstalled it (firebug) - no change. However, it is RANDOM. when highlighting to copy/paste a non-hyperlinked text is when it happens for me - NOT on hyper-linked right-click action.
Well it could be another Extension you have installed, particularly if it is a older version of it. If you only have so many you could try disabling one at a time, especially any that has similarities to Firebug or add stuff to right-click context menu.

i have (at the time of upgrade) and now, 3: Ghostery - enabled. Microsoft net - DISABLED, Realplayer Browser Record - DISABLED. (i'm a purist), If there is a good "test" case. its me - i don't run a lot of extensions....
If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: Firefox > Quit Firefox; Linux: Firefox/File > Quit)
- If you have many extensions then first enable half of the extensions to test which half has the problem.
- Continue to divide the bad half that still has the issue until you find which one is causing it.
IMPORTANT EXTRA NOTE: All of what is said above ended up helping me EVEN THOUGH I did not have Firebug in my browser. I MIGHT have had it at one point, but removed it. However, it was the cause of this problem.
I INSTALLED Firebug and then REMOVED IT and the problem was fixed!!!
The Solution is here...i tired it out successfully

No that is not the solution. That extension is for modifying normal right-click context menu and not one made broken by a extension like a older version of Firebug.
