I upgraded 2 PC's to Windows 1903. 1 is running perfectly fine the other cant use Adobe Flash in Firefox anymore. As soon as i activate/allow any flash on any site Firefox just freezes and has to be closed. If i use chrome on the same sites etc. everything is fine and runs smoothly. I tried reinstalling the Adobe Flash stuff, used an older Version of Adobe and Firefox (different combinations), deleted my Profile, tried factory reset and many more options (disabling hardware acceleration etc.)
Just kinda stuck now where the problem comes from

Whenever I close or restart Firefox, my formhistory file is deleted and a fresh one replaces it. I do not want this to happen. In the Privacy & Security section, I have the "Clear history when Firefox closes" box unchecked and the "use custom settings for history" selected. Is there some other setting I need to set to prevent that file from being deleted when FF closes? Thanks for any response. Gary
I can't get rid of corrupted profiles so cannot reinstal FireFox "FireFox is already running but not responding" etc.

This is on my wife's pc. An i7 4930K Pentium, 32 gig of ram. She tried to open Firefox a few weeks ago and got the boxed message "FireFox is already running but not responding" I have made repeated efforts to revive FireFox with no luck whatsoever. I tried closing it from the "Start Task Manager" but it would close all but one entry. I tried to close all the profiles and reinstal but I couldn't do it as it said you cannot delete these files, they are already being used. I tried to clear all Mozilla and Firefox from the registry and still I couldn't reload FireFox and got the boxed message "FireFox is already running, but is not responding. The old Firefox process must be closed to open a new window"

ubuntu 16.04, firefox 68.0.1. New instance started after "updated in background" restart just sits there. Add-ons are not started, tabs are not restored as promised. Typing in URL bar and hitting enter does nothing. No response to attempt to open a bookmark. Typing "about:support", no response. I tried removing and re-installing firefox with "sudo apt", no help. Starting firefox without addons, no help. The "about:firefox" display shows no change in version number. A reboot is the only thing that cures this. It has now happened 8 times (8/2, 8/5, 8/9. 8/16 and 4 times earlier). I have about-buildconfig, about-firefox and about-support from 8/2 and 8/5 if they would be helpful.

Trying to download Firefox on a brand new Mac with Mojave 10.14.5 and I keep getting error message "Firefox 68.0.2.dmg is damaged and can't be opened. You should move it to the Trash." I've tried a few fixes suggested for the same message on other sites, but nothing is working.

Typing anything in the browser is completely delayed until I stop typing entirely. If I type a sentence then no characters appear until I stop tying entirely, so the delay can be quite significant. When attempting to download a file and changing directories, it can take minutes to successfully navigate the folder changes (triple-clicking left side to get a response) and then 10 seconds or longer before it unfreezes and actually begins to download after clicking the "save" button.

I have been using the latest version of Firefox with the standard add-ons viz Ublock Origin, Adblock Plus, NoScript and so on. I can put up the exact list if required but every time i close a tab a cookie from ec2-35-169-248-108.compute-1.amazonaws.com get deleted even though there is nothing related to that host name anywhere installed on my computer specially in firefox or its addons.
and being a privacy conscious individual i had already disabled all third party cookies and other enabled all other privacy settings.
Is someone building a profile of each website and webpage that i visit ? how do i resolve this problem ?
Please find images of the specific hosts' cookies being auto deleted by in the right hand button corner highlighted in Red color by "Cookie AutoDelete" which is one of the security addon downloaded from https://addons.mozilla.org

For example if I go to https://jsfiddle.net/01tpr8sd/, a dialogue will pop up asking me which application I'd like to use to handle this link, while it should have triggered the internal U2F implementation. I have tried starting Firefox in safe mode and resetting values that look relevant in about:config but neither of them helped.
It doesn't happen if I create a fresh new profile though, but I really want to avoid the hassle of backing up all the extension configurations... Please help, thanks a lot.

Long-time Firefox user with several profiles defined via ProfileManager. Have several AppleScript apps that start firefox-bin with "-P profilename" to start Firefox with the named profile (see <https://spf13.com/post/managing-multiple-firefox-profiles-in-os-x/> for a description of how this is set up). They no longer work. Starting the profiles from a shell prompt also does not seem to work, at best it opens a new Firefox window in each currently-open Firefox profile. Have tried -P with profile name (profile name quoted), --profile with path to profile's "Root Directory", --profile with path to profile's "Local Directory", pathnames quoted if necessary; all of the above with --new-instance. No joy. What am I missing?
