i already tried for help - more troubleshoot- clear printing .. still its the same result

Suddenly yesterday Firefox became very sluggish and showed "very high" power usage in Win Task Manager. I tried the recommended troubleshooting but to no avail so I did a refresh. Still no change so I tried uninstalling and doing a fresh install. Then another refresh but still the same so unfortunately Firefox is now almost unusable.

Attached SS shows 9 processes open with just the one tab open and the very high power usage.

Any way to fix this?

Hi developers, I wanted to send compressed requests (i.e raw JSON to Gzip) from firefox browser to API server which can understand both compressed and un-compressed requests. For same, I am setting up content-encoding header as gzip, will the browser automatically compress the raw requests just by adding the content-encoding request header or do I need to manually compress the requests using some code snippet ?

every time I open firefox, annoncements for privacy badger, ad-block, ad-guard etc open along with start up page.

Only want my chosen start page to open. How do I stop privacy badger etc from opening tab?

I have tried to import saved bookmark (Firefox json and html save). It restores the file but automatically unsorts the booksmarks from folder and all file the links go to my bookmark toolbar. I want to restore the way I organized them originally.

Hi there. I am an online student, and platform used for my course is SIMnet by McGraw Hill. I contacted their support team today as the SIMnet course will not even load on my computer. Their answer, switch to Chrome - Mozzilla creates too many problems. I am NOT switching, and am wondering if there is a setting I can change for it to work for me? Please help - I do not like Google!! Thank you

I updated to the newest release and since then I cannot do two things: 1) playback any online audio 2) have my computer mic work during video calls I tested my computer setting and also used another browser (Chrome) and had no issues with audio, which is why the problem is with Firefox. Please help ASAP!!

Hi there!

I'm curious about what happened to the 120Hz (and above) support? Disabling addons don't seem to change anything, Edge works without a problem on the UFO test etc. but firefox seems completely broken on 105.0.1 (64-bit) for now.

Anybody else with the same experience?

Printing

Modified print settings

Every time I login to my desktop it tries to restore Firefox and in turn Firefox tries to restore it's session, however all I get is a mess of graphical glitches, the interface doesn't even load, I get a window border and usually a copy of the KDE splash screen. I then have to kill the process, which of course means it looses my session so when I re-open it I get nothing, all my open tabs are gone and there is no restore session option.

Further, it can't even play streaming videos properly anymore. After one or two episodes of a TV show its lagging sometimes by minutes, eaten gigs of ram and the video often gets stuck, the audio helpfully carries on with a frame of video from about 5 minutes ago. This is not an exaggeration, I had a YouTube video where it changed to a graph with a voice over, after 5 minutes I started to notice the voice over was talking about things not on that graph and sure enough the video had frozen. Its an i9 10850K with 32GB of RAM. The previous version of Firefox didn't mind restoring a session with over 350 tabs and plenty were videos, this one can't handle 2 when one is a video without freezing or locking up the whole browser.

No other apps/ programs on this PC are having any issues, it is only happening in Firefox, I can for example open a media player and play a video just fine while the video is stuck in the browser or it has the graphic glitches. I also tried opening another instance of Firefox while it had the graphical issue, the new instance started and created a new entry on the task bar, but switching to it gave the same display as the broken one, I can't tell you what tabs either had open as nothing inside the window was rendered at all, not even the menu bar which I set to always being visible.

When I am using a web application; ie office365, bank app, etc. If i hit "command p" to print or go to "file-print"....it makes me save as PDF...then i need to go to finder and locate the pdf and print from there.....it has been doing this for many months.....I am saving all kinds of files unnecessarily and a lot of time is lost with all theses extra steps.....any suggestions?

Note: if i use other web browsers it doesn't do this......or if I open office365 documents on the desktop version, it doesn't do this...they will print correctly.

On Youtube, there is a read more option for every comment that is not typed in English, or any other Anglo/Cyrillic/Latin language really, but the issue does not appear on Microsoft Edge nor any other browser so I'm wondering if there a fix to this as I can't tell which one actually has a read more and which ones are just a bug. Can you please tell me what is causing this and how to fix it? thanks.

Hi, This problem has been happening more over the last 6-8 months, and to the best of my knowledge nothing has significantly changed with the OS or settings that would be in conflict. What typically happens is I will have a new page not load and just spin as if it's trying to load and it won't, or I will have links on sites not load correctly, and getting errors in that vein like.

I'll quit Firefox and relaunch it and I get the error you see in the attached screenshot. I'll have to download the most current version, reinstall, and then it launches and functions perfectly. Until it doesn't, and from what I've noticed, there really isn't a pattern I can see as to why and when it happens. I'm currently on a MacBook Pro using OS 11.2.3 (Big Sur). There is another Mac in the office, I believe on OS Montery (not sure what exact version) both on the Apple M1 Chip, and it happens to that user too and the same fix is the only way to get it back to functioning.

So far, I haven't had anyone on Windows let me know of any similar situation happening and I'm at a loss as to what could be causing the issue. Thanks, Heath

I have had this with various versions of Firefox. Currently on 105.0.1 on W10 laptop. Todays example, I've logged into Ancestry, and clicked the link to get to my family tree. As soon as the page opens, it then looks like it goes behind sunglasses, (just the window, not the toolbar) and none of the links on the page are accesible on mouse hover. It looks like Firefox has protected the page. Not sure whether it is something I have done, it doesn't seem to affect many other sites that I can remember.. I use 'Strict' tracking protection - I've tried turning this off for the site, but no change.

So something off has been happening to firefox with me recently, I am having like visual errors and firefox has been acting weird lately, I remember yesterday when I was going to bed I noticed one of my tabs in firefox was flickering pink and what not, And I kinda thought it was a bug and closed itt off then closed firefox off and went to bed, Cue today same thing happened expect the effect was much more bigger, The screen was flickering alot with pink, Some display errors, And I am noticing pink lines that are still there ontop of my tabs and browser entirely, The other windows are not affected by it, Something is off, The screen was flickering in a way like I can see my desktop entirely along with the browser page and so on

I actually do not know the reason but I do feel like its firefox related, Yes I disabeled hardware acceleration and so far I still see the pink lines, Yet nothing is happening aside from the pink lines and I still don't trust it

I don't know what to do need help, Thank you very much
