Every time I play my favorite game, it is choppy at the most inconvenient times.

What can I do to improve the smoothness of my game play?

Mind you, its only Tetris, so the gpu's needed are not that complex.

Thanks

Firefox Extension "Tab Session Manager" will not open saved session tabs as a GROUP

From session to session, Tab Session Manager (TSM) displays any tab I have left open when I shut down Firefox. The TSM display of tabs appears in a vertical column (left side of screen) provided by the Firefox extension, Tree Style Tabs. At any time, I have a total of perhaps 600 tabs distributed among four separate windows in TSM, with each window linked to the task bar at screen bottom, letting me choose which window to display, full-screen,

Running Windows 7 64bit SP1, I have had no problems until now displaying any of the four windows, one at a time, in the left column of my screen. Yet, now, I lost one of the windows when starting a Firefox session, and only three windows appear. Trying to recover all of the windows, since I have no menu option other than to restore the entire four window backup, I have clicked on TSM's top menu to restore all four windows. TSM does respond to my single, left-click, but restores only one window of the original four. A right-click of the TSM menu at top right of my screen makes no reference to "restore all windows in selected backup" or "restore all windows in latest saved session".

Essentially, TSM has maintained a perfect record of all TSM backups ever made, each showing date and time, but since TSM now will not restore all windows, my operations in Firefox are crippled. In past incidents when windows have been missing, I have successfully restored all windows of any backup (each backup a set of multiple windows) chosen.

My "brute force" recourse is to restore the entire Windows 7 volume from a very recent image made in the imaging application Macrium Reflect, since all the TSM windows are so valuable to my work. But that does not resolve the TSM failure to restore all of the saved tab collections.

Meantime, I have located the repository of TSM image collections, and have been able to make test backups of large numbers of tabs, and restore them properly and completely. The major problem that remains is restoring all of the tabs from multiple windows contained in the same backup, as I could before. I have tried to reach a TSM community discussion on a GitHub link, but am uncertain where to proceed next.

• BTW-- to view the entire screen, which is too small to review in the Mozilla Forum popup viewer, open the .PNG image in MS Paint.

I discovered this issue while trying to chat on Twitch. On my m1 macos, I try to insert emoji into the twitch chat via <control+command+space> shortcut and opening up the emoji picker. When I click on a emote to insert, nothing is inserted. Then, when I try to do the same into the developer's console via <command+option+i> , again nothing is inserted. This does not appear to be the case on Chrome.

Steps to reproduce: 1) be on macOS 2) open emoji picker via <control+command+space> 3) try to insert emoji into twitch chat OR developer's console

nothing is inserted

Hello I recently updated firefox, and I think it got rid of all my old settings. at any rate, I went to the 'add ons' area, and clicked the button to have the evernote web clipper added back to my account. according to the 'add on' area, I have sucessfully installed the evernote web clipper. However, I do not see the little green elephant button in it's usual place in the upper right hand corner of the browser. I tried logging out and restarting firefox, but still the same result. I am afraid that without having the the little green elephant head button to click- there is no way for me to actually use the add on. Can you help me figure out how to make the little green elephant button visible, so I can actually use the add on?

 thank you

None of the topics appears to be appropriate. Since yesterday each time I open a new tab another window opens duplicating the already existing window/s. For a while earlier today the multiple windows disappeared and new windows didn't open but now it's happening again. How do I prevent this happening?

I have been unable to sign in to google accounts on 3rd party websites for a while now. I'm using firefox develloper edition. i do not have this issue with normal firefox

every time i try to sign in i get redirected to https://support.google.com/accounts/a.../32050?hl=en

Heres some of the things i tried:

• Clear cache and cookies
• "repair" Firefox from the uninstaller
• Reinstall Firefox

To be honest it is quite a bit annoying and i cannot find a solution thanks in advance for any help

As of last week, FF works for a few minutes on startup, but then when you open a new tab and try to go to a site you just get the dancing period, nothing opens. Already open tabs with sites generally still work, but sometimes crash the tabs after a bit. We've tried starting without extensions, uninstalling and reinstalling FF, changing the profile, logging in the PC (Win 10, up to date) with a different login, running SFC and DISM on the PC, and just about everything else.

Opening the FF console shows this message when the tab just rocks the period:

WindowsJumpLists: Failed to fetch favicon for https://online.adp.com/signin/v1/?APPID=WFNPortal&productId=80e309c3-7085-bae1-e053-3505430b5495&returnURL=https://workforcenow.adp.com/&callingAppId=WFN&TARGET=-SM-https://workforcenow.adp.com/theme/admin.html NS_ERROR_FAILURE: WindowsJumpLists.sys.mjs:257:29

Edge works perfectly (and unfortunately, I'm having to use Edge to enter this ticket.). Other applications don't have any issues. I'm not having this issue on 2 other similar PCs I have that run FF, only this one.

Any ideas of what might be the issue with FF on this PC? Thanks, Alex

Video has been running well and suddenly a new issue.

Video begins to display (...for a fraction of a second) then I get Error, Unhandled video privacy. I suspect a setting has been inadvertently changed, but can't find it. Any thoughts?

Hi

I've gotten a couple of reports from Firefox users. Users report odd text formatting when typing 1st and 2nd on the body of an email when using Outlook web browser. See attached image.

I tested this on my production machine, and I'm also seeing the odd text formatting.

I've cleared my cache, uninstall/reinstall a fresh Firefox version, I've used a Private browser window, and I am still running into this issue.

I'm using a M1 MacBook Air. Currently on macOS Sonoma 14.6.1 - Firefox version 131.0.3. I have a user who has a M3 MacBook Air on Sonoma 14.5 - Firefox version 126.0.1

Whenever I open a new tab in Firefox, an unexpected image appears instead of my wallpaper or the default background. I've checked my settings but can't figure out what's causing this. Has anyone else experienced this issue, and how can I fix it? Any help would be appreciated!

There is a crash every time I open the browser. I tried the flatpack and system package and to no avail. Here are the crash reports: https://crash-stats.mozilla.org/report/index/bp-bf2784a8-d50b-4eb8-9b56-9b8080241025 https://crash-stats.mozilla.org/report/index/bp-842ca83e-d926-45ad-a5c0-9c96c0241025 https://crash-stats.mozilla.org/report/index/bp-691ec2d2-7215-44a5-b176-31b090241025 https://crash-stats.mozilla.org/report/index/bp-4a1d0d29-821c-4647-814c-d483e0241025 https://crash-stats.mozilla.org/report/index/bp-e9e42a94-1db3-497e-8c18-0ee0e0241025

Any help would be appreciated.

I prefer using the FireFox browser on YouTube, but several months ago, it began developing a problem. Videos halt and then the rotating circle appears and keeps turning and nothing happens. If I skip past it, it restarts and runs for a few minutes, but then stops again. The machine is W-10, FF ver. 115.6.0esr (64-bit) but it can also be configured to run W-7 and it does it there too. A number of longer, higher quality videos (8kEarth, 8kParadise) don't seem to have the problem and it only does it on YT. All the videos run correctly with Chrome. I've refreshed FF, but it hasn't helped. I also disabled hardware acceleration. Anyone else had a problem with this?

Firefox 131.0.3 (64-bit) on Windows Windows 10 Pro 22H2

Picking a link from the Firefox jump list opens a new tab for the link correctly. However, it always used to be that the pertinent window was then brought to the front. That no longer happens. (For about the last two years - I am only now looking for a solution.)

All other programs, including all my other browsers, do come to the front as expected.

Is the correct behavior to be configured somewhere in Firefox or Windows? All help welcome!
