My ram is broken in certain memory locations, writing to these locations brick the program, or if the program is kernel-level, I will blue screen.

I don't want to spend any more on my PC. It was the largest amount of money I had ever seen when I first bought it. Even if I have way more resources now, I don't believe that a few faulty locations in my memory should be causing so many problems for myself and for developers who have no clue why their users keep crashing.

It is either my RAM or VRAM. Disabling XMP on my RAM dampened these issues but couldn't fully solve them.

It's exactly as I said. Normal programs just crash. Kernel-level programs or anti-cheats can entirely blue screen my PC. It all has to do with where these programs are writing to in my hardware. It's only a few locations that I have faulty. Most programs work fine. Most games work fine. Most crashes are very transient.

Firefox is a transient and common crasher for me. It's so painful to be scrolling a page and have the page crash, just for the previous page to load instead of the newer one that I was on, and on top of that I could also be losing work or effort.

I know this isn't exactly a dev support page, but this problem is so recurring that I don't know what to think anymore. There has to be a way to check which memory locations are fried without causing a bluescreen or crashing the program. Maybe it's a Windows issue and devs could easily fix it, if it weren't for Windows bottlenecks like labelling the faulty locations as "protected". I've seen at least 1 crash where the output said something like "Error: tried writing to protected location" blah blah blah then it spit out some hexcode or exact location and blahblahblah. And that was the entire error message.

How do I disable the forced and ABRUPT obligatory Firefox updates?

I don't know who was the absolute [edited] to have the idea of forcing updates while the user is still working on the browser by shutting the browser down. Can someone else help me understand how to stop this nonsense??

And yes, I had the option "Check for updates but let you choose to install them" selected, and I'm still being molested by this forced restart """feature"""!

Every time I'm in the middle of an important work session, Firefox will suddenly refuse to open new tabs and prevent the ones that are already open from connecting and receiving updates. It erase private tabs and messes up everything!

I was in a call with my boss, and it got dropped because Firefox decided to update?? And DEMANDED that I close the browser IMMEDIATELY to continue using it????? What the hell???????????

I've only been running into this problem in the past few months, and I'm honestly shocked by how little uproar I'm seeing online about this bug. This is by far the worst think I've ever seen in a browser.

Anyway, I appreciate any help. I saw a trick to permanently disable updates, but I don't want to disable them. I just want them to be installed either when I CHOOSE or when the bloody browser is NOT in use!

Firefox automatically deletes my text after I type the "." after it.

I am currently using the Vietnamese Telex IME of Windows 11 and I just found out that whenever I type the "." after any word, that word will be deleted. This is how to recreate the bug: 1. Type "hello " 2. Backspace (delete) 1 time, now it is "hello" 3. Type "." and the whole thing is deleted, turned into an "." string instead of "hello."

I just wanna ask if there is any setting or config that can solve this problem. Thanks.

In macOS (Tahoe), how to get Firefox to follow system dark/light settings that INCLUDE the web pages themselves?

macOS Tahoe, Firefox 152.0.3 macOS settings include "Appearance - Auto"; i.e. system switches from light to dark at sunset. While the "top area" (tabs, address bar, bookmarks bar) of Firefox follows this - some of the pages themselves do NOT???

I found this website which was at top of the search results. I tried to follow it, but it seems to be badly outdated in certain key respects: esp wrt a setting called "ui.systemUsesDarkTheme" in about:config. I set this to "True", but may have screwed this up!! First question: Should I "reset" this somehow?

Finally: To get at the primary question, there are two "sub-questions" that may explain my confusion more clearly:

1. Is there no ***simple way*** to get Firefox & webpages I view to follow macOS Light/Dark appearance?? What are the CORRECT steps?

2. Do individual webpages have the ability to "decide for themselves" whether or not they will adhere to the system light/dark settings. This may well be an officially "stupid question", but while "most" webpages remain "Light" (including this Support page), a few pages appear dark.

Thanks, ~S

There seems to be no rhyme or reason as to what Firefox keeps in the address bar drop-down, sometimes websites I visited once for a specific reason will stay there for literal months, and websites I go to often don't show up at all, or vanish after a few days (during which I will be actively clicking on them, no less).

I know it's probably a bit weird, but I actually like keeping several specific websites in the drop-down menu, it makes it easy to navigate to them without cluttering my bookmarks (any more than they already are). How do I keep specific websites in the address bar's drop down?

Was there any Webkit based Firefox or is it UA spoofing?

Hi all the people,

I was just surprised to see this in an Apache HTTP log: "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Firefox/58.0.1"

This bugs me. My first guess would be that a Webkit based Firefox could not be qualified as really Firefox. Although that, I could imagine a Firefox for iOS or MacOS based on Webkit, may be, but it says it is on Windows, which makes less sense.

I suspect this is a user agent string spoofing, but I just need to be sure (I try to get ride of far too invasive bots, while I’m afraid to disrupt browsing from legitimate web users).

With thanks and my apologizes for such a question which may looks obvious or strange to people who know for sure.

In the word application in Firefox I am able to make a document with an insert of a photograph and when I have it completed it will not let me email it it will not let me open it with my phone once it's saved and when I can figure out a way to open it with my phone it literally removes the photo insert and causes all the letters to be overlapping. And the insert I put on it is completely gone
