starting just now, firefox will not take me to ANY website. All other browsing services are working. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling and clearing cache and cookies.

If I cant get this fixed for my job I will go back to chrome and never download or retry this again. I will also never recommend firefox to anyone like I have in the past.

I am running Firefox on Linux. Desktop environment is KDE. Compositor is Wayland. I have a 11th Gen Intel Tiger lake Core i3 with integrated Intel UHD Graphics GPU. I do not have a eGPU or any other GPU apart from the integrated Intel UHD Graphics GPU. Intel drivers are installed and are being used. Please see the details given below from about:support for more details. What I have observed that Hardware acceleration, specifically WEBRENDER_COMPOSITOR, WEBRENDER_SHADER_CACHE and WEBRENDER_DCOMP_PRESENT are disabled. The details are given below.

I have enabled the force hardware acceleration too by setting the property media.hardware-video-decoding.force-enabled to true. But still the above three hardware acceleration are still not available.

How can I get these enabled?

For the past 2 days, Facebook won't load when I try to change my page to another (just switching between accounts). It acts like it is changing or loading, and then I just get nothing. I have done all of the things that are requested from clearing my cache, browsing data, restarting, etc. Nothing is working. I've attached a picture of my screen of I receive when I try to change pages - the big F. LOL Facebook on my phone works fine. I've tried also turning off my VPN and it doesn't load.

I've also had issues with my Xfinity email loading unless I turn off my VPN.

So what is going on?

I am an old Firefox user who has been using Chrome for quite some time and now decided to go back. And now I'm wondering where the hell is the “skip all stupid warnings” button when I go to a site I trust but which nevertheless has a self-signed certificate, because I know for a fact that there used to be such a button. Moreover, your guide offers me to click the “additional” button, where I supposedly can find this very cherished button. But it's not there! So, it would be okay, specifying this site in the exceptions in the settings - that doesn't help either. Why should I waste my time on this?

https://speedtest.xfinity.com/

I have a 600 Mbps internet connection with Infinity. It measures the speed on Chrome, through my router, however, Firefox only measures the internet speed at approximately 400Mbps. Firefox is slow. I have done all thing suggested to make Firefox perform better. What has happened to this browser? Also the Browser when loaded with too many tabs freezes and has to be forced quit. I started using Vivaldi that measures over 600Mbps. Comments. My laptop is a older iMac that still works perfectly running High Sierra. No more Mac's, Apple has lost it way on producing computers, and has defaulted itself to a phone company.

Attached is a screen shot that shows Firefox trying to measure the speed, but the test has frozen, will not complete.

Hello to those of you reading this,

Over the last five or so days, my Firefox has been acting in a wholly unpredictable way. Every time I launch Firefox, the inspect element tab will open and close itself repeatedly for about 3-10 seconds, stop for a bit, and then start again. CPU usage by Firefox skyrockets whenever the glitch occurs.

I have tried Troubleshoot mode, I have tried a clean install, I have tried to refresh Firefox, all to no avail. This doesn't seem to have anything to do with a Firefox update, as the last update to my Firefox was well over a week prior to the start of this issue.

I am running several extensions: uMatrix uBlock DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials DecentralEyes PrivacyBadger BetterTTV Facebook Container Firefox Multi-Account Containers TTV Ad-block Wikipedia Context Menu Search Redirect AMP to HTML

However, none of these seem to be the cause of this issue as it persists in Troubleshoot mode and after a Firefox Refresh.

The only reasonable lead I have regarding this issue is that the browser console spams the error messages as can be seen in the image attached to this post. A recurring element is "server0.conn0.watcher2.process16". I'm afraid I know only enough about coding to understand that this is probably the root of the issue, but am completely lost on how to fix it.

Another tidbit of information, whose relevance I doubt but am including nonetheless, is that I recently transferred my C:/ drive from an SSD to an NVMe. I'm wondering if perhaps the application is trying to call on a process stored on the other drive. I find this unlikely, as similarly to the point on the Firefox version this only started occurring a week or two after I transferred the drive over.

Any assistance on this matter would be greatly appreciated!

When I click on headlines for Yahoo Sports articles, the headline is centered on my screen, but the article is on the right periphery with only the very left portion of the article visible. I don't know how to center the article to make it legible. This problem only occurs with Sports articles, not with Yahoo news of finance ones. How do I fix?

Over the past couple of days, Firefox has been crashing almost constantly, with my MacBook sometimes also crashing/restarting. Both Firebox and my MacBook are up to date. I've also used troubleshoot mode and turned off my extensions, which seemed to lower the number of crashes, but it still crashes often. It might not be a problem with Firefox itself and be my laptop though.

Here are the most recently submitted crashes: bp-d9d40206-0c39-42bf-bafa-7d3db0250601 bp-da8e889b-418e-4013-a15f-0baab0250601 bp-91a858dc-fd66-4d56-b562-df0210250601 bp-994111f2-6adb-4880-8ba5-7f4260250601 bp-2f6f1988-eec7-458c-8adc-0593d0250601 bp-3e8aed4c-653d-4cac-b27d-03b3c0250601 bp-85a5ab0f-c67f-4bbc-808c-c34ca0250601 bp-c9bdc438-4ab2-4140-b24e-d8a1f0250601 bp-9bcb646e-3759-4a15-a774-2a3610250601 bp-c4cfb24f-b526-44b8-9bee-285110250601 bp-9a99ba98-2740-482e-8f7e-ecded0250601 bp-55fdf2c4-ed4c-49f9-aa84-5da910250601 bp-1be15c0c-5b2a-4f42-90b0-65f460250601 bp-bb5b2ae9-1873-4983-a809-0c0780250601 bp-863836b6-675e-44b5-a436-a05cf0250601 bp-fa6a27b6-10c1-4493-8e5a-9b6d60250601 bp-14df44da-d422-463b-bdae-429c40250601 bp-64e8612a-1f0f-43d4-8ea7-213db0250601 bp-c9d05cd4-de71-4ddd-9a30-3be8c0250601 bp-29db71dc-9b83-47f1-9f37-328490250531 bp-45a5bdb4-8741-4a74-a281-e82680250531
