Family members updated Firefox to 68.0.2 After doing so, they could log in to AOL but when trying to access their mail, they'd get an error about an improper redirect. Standard procedure was tried. Cleared Cache, Cleared Cookies, Forgot Site Booted Safe Mode Refreshed Firefox Deleted .sqlite files for cookies Wasn't able to find any button for disabling Content Blocker in this version of Firefox but since everything was default, I doubted that was the issue. It was only blocking trackers. I even tried to solve the issue by following the instructions to disable DNS prefetching in the help article: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-cant-load-websites-other-browsers-can

I'm starting to think it has nothing to do with Firefox. Everything seems to be up to date. I have Windows 10 and a Graphics Chipset Radeon (TM) R7 M445.
Things I have noticed:
When I open task manager I notice I have multiple sessions running...more than the tabs I have open. Is there a way to limit sessions to what I have tabs for?
I hit Ctrl + Shift + E and switch to performance. When I record performance while visiting these sites my FPS drops tremendously. Some of these sites are unrelated to Youtube. Gmail is another site I have the large FPS drop.

I tried entering a code into the verification box, but got locked out for security purposes saying verification code I inserted was incorrect...but I know it wasn't. I tried several times with same result. I am trying to download Firefox on a new computer and want all my previous settings intact. Also, in the verification code, how can you tell if Firefox wants you to insert a "zero" or an "O" as they are identical. I'm grateful for any help I can get. Thank you.
How to stop Firefox from automatically updating

Hi, I package software for my college. I use Altiris (Symantec Management Agent) to deploy Firefox. I keep having a problem where Altiris will have the updated version of Firefox, and then a minor update to Firefox is released and it breaks Firefox. Like right now we have 68.0.1 packaged, and 68.0.2 just came out and Firefox automatically updates to that. Firefox won't work when Altiris installs 68.0.1 because of the detection check looking to see if Firefox 68.0.1 is installed, but it doesn't so it installs 68.0.1. Firefox then says that I'm using an old version and need to make a new profile and I lose my bookmarks, internet history, and logins. We would like to prevent this from happening.

Dead new tabs trying to open links until the universe reaches heat death. Happens occasionally that new tabs just stop loading or just one is unable to load. Pretty sporadic mysterious software behavior with no obvious cause. I know for a fact that this has been an issue in (many) previous versions as well and not only for me or on my machine.

Under options, I have Firefox set to restore my previous session when it reopens. Most of the time it does this just fine, but twice this summer it has lost all of my previous tabs. I read about, and found the recovery.jsonlz4 and recovery.baklz4 files, but they include only the tabs from the current session, not any of the former tabs. I often have dozens to hundreds of tabs open, and this is mightily annoying. Any ideas why this happens, how to prevent it in the future, and is there any hope of finding those lost tabs? I'm strongly considering ditching Firefox for another browser.

I have 32GB memory, and at any given time I have from 10-25 GB free and open. Right now I have 24.5 GB of free memory. AND my problem started at about version 64 and is very random about when a tab goes belly-up. I can close the offending tab and then re-open and solve the issue. For the occasional screw-up, not a big deal. BUT 6 tabs refuse to update after 10 minutes is not acceptable.
AND browser.tabs.unloadOnLowMemory was already set to false due to my large available memory? How much memory can Firefox access and use for the browser?
Appreciate a response

Latest Firefox version on Windows 10 Pro
Hi,
On the left side of the image you see Twitch.tv (example) and it has a very small vertical scroll bar. On the right side of the image you see this forum (example) and it has a normally sized vertical scroll bar.
I don't know if it's the site that is able to control the scroll bar or if it's the browser that automatically sizes things but is it possible to disable custom sized scroll bars so I always have a normal sized scroll bar?
Thanks.
Firefox chooses to always open an externally clicked link on a firefox window present on the macbook's display instead of the one present on an external monitor
This happens even though my last focus was the window present on the secondary display. This also happens regardless of which display is set as primary display.

Hello,
Since I updated my computer this afternoon (21th aug 19), TB and FF won't start anymore. There is a crash reporter, but I'm not sure if it has sended a report (the reports). Thanks to a firefox helpsite I have distilled a Crash ID: bp-8ebc69e2-ceb0-41b3-86c6-05dfe0190821 Maybe someone can shed any light to this. Thanks in advance!

Thanks for any help on this.
