Firefox Форум

after the download of v.126.0 i discover my history, all of it, has been deleted. in its place is a single web site, which shows up as the only web site visited across a time span going back months. this single web site cannot be deleted from the history. it cannot be deleted through the settings menu. no new history is created by web visits. the persisting single web site is among the sites in my tool bar, but is also a site i have not recently visited (months before this happened).

Hi all!

A while back I downgraded my Firefox version to some old version to be able to access a FortiGate 310B. However when I upgraded back and started using the latest version my search completion stopped working, but my search completion is turned on. It shows things I've already searched for, but it's not fetching new completions. I lived with this for a while since I couldn't be bothered to fix it, but I recently moved to linux, and copied all my data, I did this by just copying the profile folder and moved into into a new profile I created on linux. It worked, my bookmark, history, passwords etc are saved, but still no completion. I tried creating a new profile and the search completion worked perfectly fine. Do you guys have any tips or things I could try? Or do I just give up and move to a new profile, since this one is presumably corrupt?

Any help is appreciated, cheers :)

Hello, I have a problem: After an automatic update of the language packs, parts of the Firefox menu (version 126.0) are displayed in EN. Parts in DE. Seems to be related to the update... how can I change this again? I have already changed the language settings. Didn't help...it appeared after an automatic update on May 28. Thanks for an idea :)

Perhaps I am the only one experiencing this issue but it is causing such an issue for me that I am afraid I will need to abandon this browser. I never in my life thought an internet browser displaying the forums for the browser would require so many processes.

Am I the only one? I have a pretty basic experience going on here but this is causing such a struggle I might need to find a new browser. I just don't understand how this even gets to be this way.

I am very grateful for a couple of advantages this browser occasionally showcases and I really don't want to migrate to another browser across my devices. All of the options I have read in this forum are pretty much disabled by the updates to Firefox but I am willing to try just about anything within reason that won't be quickly screwed up by another update.

My apologies if I sound frustrated, but come on that's a lot of processes to show your support page and it's eating up so many resources that could be used to trouble shoot my projects in a timely manner. This impacts performance to the point that I can't watch a tutorial with nothing else going on while working with GDevelop.

Hi, I've used Wondershare uniconverter for quite a while without issue. Recently, every time I start a download in uniconverter, firefox crashes/closes. I tried troubleshoot mode in firefox with all extensions and add-ons disabled (I only have 1) and also cleared cache and cookies. Issue remains.

Has anyone come across this and/or has any suggestions?

Thanks.

Hi,

I have a problem.

I am using Firefox browser (version: 126.0 64 bit) on Windows 11 Pro. Audio is automatically muted on all Kick broadcasts. (https://kick.com) When I refresh the page or click another streamer, I have to unmute the broadcast.

(I do not have this problem in the Google Chrome browser)

How can i fix it?

Example video I have issues with: (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udXuzXhb9WY)

I can't watch youtube videos smoothly using the vp09 codec at 4k/1440p [Codec: vp09.00.51.08.01.01.01.01.00 (313) / opus (251)]. Constant buffering, lag, pausing of the video or just not playing at all keeps occurring with the video I put above for example, and other videos using the same codec.

My internet connection is very quick in fact, with getting ~90mbps upload/download. My computer specs are good, having an i7 12700kf and an rtx 3060 with 64gb of ram. All my drivers are on the latest version. The video I linked above plays for about 10 sec before not loading more of the video and just infinitely loading (The main issue that is causing this to happen is that when I open stats for nerds, the buffer health isn't being updated).

I tried various solutions online that I found on forums, such as forcing av1 encoding, which fixes the issue, however on that specific video I linked, keeps the quality at 1080p, which probably is a issue on youtubes part and the file format of the video. I tried many other fixes.

On microsoft edge, the video plays fine with no playback stutters or anything. I don't have any 3rd party extensions installed that may affect the video playback. I did a lot of things to eliminate as many variables as possible, but the issue persists. I did a full reinstall of the browser, reseting cookies and temp data and also trying the nightly version of firefox, but non of those fixes worked. Basically everything I thought of I did.

Like I mentioned before, this issue is NOT only for the youtube video I linked, but its for all videos using just the vp09 codec for the 4k/1080p quality. The only fix I did find for that video is actually while writing this, I left the tab open for the youtube video for a while then played it and it played smoothly with no interruptions and the buffer health was constantly being updated, but after refreshing the page, it was the same.

From what I can remember this issue hasn't been happening for the lifespan of my pc (less than 6 months), and I cannot remember when the issue started happening. It seems to be pretty recent (maybe 2-3 months if I were to guess). At first I started tolerating it and thought it was a small bug since it only happened on videos I played at 4k using the vp09 encoder, but now its really frustrating and makes it possible to watch most 4K content. Some videos I notice when it starts buffering, it resorts to an alternate av1 codec for 4k video, but its only for certain videos. Unfortunately I cannot back track and see what started this issue.

Here is some additional info:

   Windows 11
   NVIDIA Game ready driver version (555.85)
   No abnormal resource usage (Gpu, Cpu ram etc.)

Good afternoon,

I am not sure if the topic is the right one I choose.

My question/complaint: recently websites, although mostly websites from my bookmarks, seem not available or existing. Mostly after a few minutes and a new trial, the website comes back as if nothing was wrong. Could it be the last update from Firefox? I never had these "problems" (a big word for minor inconveniences) before and I use Firefox at least during the last 15 years.

Thank you in advance for your answer.

Best regards, Rien de Vos

Hello, Whenever I try to open something on Firefox, for example, the Library, I get the message "Mozilla Firefox (Not Responding) and it hangs with no immediate responsive action. I click on any Firefox button or tab and I get the same message and I get the blue little circle and I sit and wait about 30 seconds or more. The page or tab eventually works but it hangs for 30 seconds or more. It is frustrating. Please help.

Thanks, Tricia

When I open a locally downloaded pdf in firefox, the background is displayed as what was previously displayed on that portion of the screen, and scrolling simply overlays moved text over what was previously displayed. Does not appear in screenshots. One of the images shows what the pdf looks like prior to scrolling, and one after.

If you experience horizontal lines appearing when scrolling after installing firefox possible fix is finding layers.acceleration.force-enabled and set to true after going to about:config in your address bar search for this and set it to true. My real question I ask myself is, why isn't this enabled by default when installing firefox? I swear I remember doing this last Win 11 install as well. My third time installing windows unfortunately, just had a nvme ssd drive fail on me. 😭😢 Ofc, it had to be my Gen 4, C: drive with my old User account on there as well. :// Lesson learned, always backup important data frequently as desired. :( Oh well, just lost all my saved games and few songs, no big deal I guess.

After update 126 "open previous windows and tabs" no longer works. It is checked but open tabs are not reopened when firefox is restarted. Using macOS Ventura 13.6.7

I got this messages on the logs and sometimes the session freezes when I'm using Firefox: mai 24 20:12:16 glados firefox.desktop[9642]: [Parent 9642, IPC I/O Parent] WARNING: process 50331 is a zombie: file /builds/worker/checkouts/gecko/ipc/chromium/src/base/process_util_posix.cc:245 mai 24 20:12:16 glados firefox.desktop[9642]: [Parent 9642, IPC I/O Parent] WARNING: process 50253 is a zombie: file /builds/worker/checkouts/gecko/ipc/chromium/src/base/process_util_posix.cc:245 mai 24 20:12:34 glados firefox.desktop[9642]: [Parent 9642, IPC I/O Parent] WARNING: process 52142 is a zombie: file /builds/worker/checkouts/gecko/ipc/chromium/src/base/process_util_posix.cc:245 mai 24 20:13:28 glados firefox.desktop[9642]: [Parent 9642, IPC I/O Parent] WARNING: process 51884 is a zombie: file /builds/worker/checkouts/gecko/ipc/chromium/src/base/process_util_posix.cc:245 mai 24 20:14:07 glados firefox.desktop[9642]: [Parent 9642, IPC I/O Parent] WARNING: process 52087 is a zombie: file /builds/worker/checkouts/gecko/ipc/chromium/src/base/process_util_posix.cc:245 mai 24 20:14:13 glados firefox.desktop[9642]: [Parent 9642, IPC I/O Parent] WARNING: process 50755 is a zombie: file /builds/worker/checkouts/gecko/ipc/chromium/src/base/process_util_posix.cc:245 mai 24 20:14:19 glados firefox.desktop[9642]: [Parent 9642, IPC I/O Parent] WARNING: process 50806 is a zombie: file /builds/worker/checkouts/gecko/ipc/chromium/src/base/process_util_posix.cc:245 lines 8174-8233/8233 (END)

I am having problems playing a particularly demanding video from YouTube (https://youtu.be/-W_nFlIAWFM) which runs at 4K/30 fps. It is a video taken from a drone flying over the Matterhorn in Europe. Here is my configuration: 1. I have a 200Mb connection to the internet and bandwidth testing confirms that it runs at a consistent 195 - 202 Mb. 2. I am using Firefox 126.0 on a dual boot machine running Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and Windows 10 (both OSes show similar stuttering and pausing). 3. My hardware is a Gigabyte Aorus Z690i motherboard with 32 GB of RAM and an Intel i5-12600K processor and an NVidia GeFroce RTX 2060 Super graphics card. I have tried disabling "Use hardware acceleration" in Firefox and also disabling all add-ons and rebooting. This hasn't resolved the problem. When I watch the same video in Google Chrome, it seems to display a much slower frame rate than 30fps but doesn't stutter. I have concluded that this video must be a super demanding one to render. There are many picture elements changing constantly. But is there a way to watch this at 4K/30fps with it playing smoothly and at the correct frame rate?

Hi, there - Over the last few months, I've noticed some things that make it impossible to get to websites. I keep getting "Secure Connection Failed," for example, with getting to Chewy.com. I just tried to sign into the ssa.gov website, but it comes back repeatedly as "403 forbidden." And another big one is trying to get to outlook.com. It never fully loads. I cannot get my email. I've been having to use Edge more and more, and I don't like that for privacy issues. Also, sometimes I cannot finish buying things on some websites without changing over to private browsing. Thanks.

I have used a free Hit Counter for many years that I got from https://www.freecounterstat.com/

I have 3 such counters and have stopped working in the latest version of Firefox on my desktop. They work with Firefox on my iPad and Android phone. They also work fine if I use the Edge Browser but I prefer using Firefox as I have for many years.

The embedded code is pretty simple, here it is for one of my counters... <a href="https://www.freecounterstat.com" title="visitor counter"></a> Can you help? Thanks, Bill T

Hello, so when I watch youtube on FF my cpu usage goes up alot and the fans go nuts. I have a very capable i5, rtx3070 machine and this issue started just a couple of days ago. I have not done any changes or updates which could trigger this problem. The problem starts mainly when I Watch in full screen mode or have multiple non-fullscreen vids active. All other apps show no signs of problem. I can watch the exact same video in Edge, no fans/high cpu, VLC works fine, Chrome is OK, it's only in FF that the problem occurs.

I have tried the following: 1.Reinstalling FF 2. Activating HW acceleration in FF and forcing it in Windows11 3. Theatre mode is off and all other YT settings are off. 4. Updated Nvidia and windows 5. FF is the latest version. 6. Disabled all my addons/plugins

No clue what can cause this..
