BLUFF:

1. Long start up times (do not see this on other browsers) 2. FIrefox often crashes. Browser tells me that a report has been sent. To where? No response. 3. How do I check if my browser is up to date?

What could be causing this? What are my effective actions to increase performance?

Mozilla Firefox is very slow and even difficult to open.....I am using this browser since ten years and never had any problem....Please do the needful at your earliest...Thank a lot....RASIK MER

Frequently when I hibernate my laptop firefox prevents its (as soon as it enters sleep it wakes up)

when I close firefox it hibernates fine

when I go to powercfg /REQUESTS its the audio card that is driving the wake up

In settings I have turned media.video-wakelock. to FALSE etc and firefox still wakes the computer

Hello, dear Mozilla support team :).

I have a question that has to do with the ever growing memory usage. I just found out the about:memory page in Firefox, which allows the users to manually free up the system memory by clicking the "Minimize memory usage" button. This is great and it does its job well, however for many years I've wondered why doesn't the browser clean up the memory taken by web pages like Twitch, Kick, Youtube, etc., which take a lot of memory, especially when people leave them open for hours, then when they close the tabs, the memory stays buffered until the browser has been completely closed.

The "Minimize memory usage" button does clean up the memory, so won't it be possible to implement such functionality that can be enabled/disabled somewhere in Settings, to allow the users to choose the browser to unload all memory taken by any tab when they close the tab, but not the whole browser?

This will help a lot, because I personally leave my PC and browser open for days, and sometimes I have to either close and re-open it, or go to about:memory and do a "Minimize memory usage" to free up the memory, that was taken few days ago by a single Twitch stream tab or some other tab, and the information in this buffer is absolutely pointless, but it sometimes takes all of my 96GB of RAM.

Thank you for any information on the subject :).

All the best, Borislav.

i can not access any of my yahoo accounts, i continue to get a pop up screen that says the "to many request" why should i continue to use firefox / mozilla. it keeps crashing and having issues. freezing and taking forever to load. restart everyday

when i sign on to my computer, frequently a prompt will appear that says i have to close the old firefox. sometimes i have to close it 5 or more times before i finally get connected to the internet. what can i do? im 83 and not tech savvy. also, when i sign on-the site crashes a lot and i should restart firefox and send a report in.

hopefully I've chosen the right help category.

When I try to shut down or restart firefox (fully updated) the file in my system monitor called firefox-bin persists. I have to end or kill the process there to turn off the browser. Due to this situation, I cannot restart the browser in troubleshoot mode or anything else. It's cold start or nothing. 99% of what I use firefox for is youtube. There are a couple of channels that when I open a video, the page will not fully load and will not play. The comments won't load either. Also, while those tabs are open my CPU usage skyrockets and memory maxes out...which freezes the computer. It's not all channels.. maybe 4 so far. I've manually turned off all extensions/themes, rebooted and tried again.. no joy. Full system freeze. I've tried to do a clean reinstall over the old files in the Linux terminal.. it just says it's already updated. I could be doing that wrong since the instructions I found on this site only apply to windows and mac machines and I was kind of winging it. Thoughts on what I can do to fix things?

There's a button below this box that suggests sharing browser data.. I'm not using firefox right now, so that wouldn't help.

I like firefox...used it two to three times a week for over ten years...Now when I click on the icon on my menu, I am greeted by the ansurb: "That doesn't look right." When I try to download Firefox, it will not down load...why are you idiots doing this to your own product?

Whenever I try to use Firefox, tab keeps crashing and there is a crash report. It keeps happening to the point where I cannot work. Below are some of dozens of crashes I've had this week. I would genuinely appreciate your help.
