Recently I observed Firefox is consuming TOO MUCH of RAM on my PC. It is anywhere between 55 % & 65%. That’s too much! I’ve 12 GB of RAM.

Is this due to updating of FF? Btw, I did not install any Extensions. And if I close Firefox the RAM consumption comes down to around 33%.

I do have 12-14 open Tabs but I always had those open Tabs. Previously FF did not consume so much of memory. What could be the reasons for this heavy RAM consumption?

On Thursday 3rd September 2026 Firefox stopped working. I tried lots of things to get it to work to no avail. Today, 8th September 2026, I had already deleted the Firefox that was already on my PC so I downloaded a fresh copy from the Firefox website and installed it. It ran perfectly for about 30 minutes then I shut it down. 5 Minutes later, a Firefox crash report appeared which I duly sent of. Checking Event Manager a string of error messages saying the same thing, Its the XUL.DLL file that keep crashing! This was the same file that caused the failure last week. I had made sure that XUL.DLL was not on the pc when I downloaded Firefox today. When I click on the Firefox icon it open but stays on a black lower half of the screen and boxes at the top, white lined but black and transparent lines moving left to right across them, eventually it fails and closes, after a few minutes it send the crash report. Its a shame because I have used Firefox for many, many years and now having to use Edge!!!!

I use Firefox browser and dogpile search engine. Dogpile opens but search results are blocked, Message is content blocker or privacy extension could be the problem. I have not made any changes to my desktop machine since I last used dogpile a couple of days ago. Dogpile works ok on my phone. What can I do to restore dogpile search results?

In the last couple of weeks, when I've used the FF address bar to search using Google, I get a Our systems have detected unusual traffic from your computer message. Sometimes I can just click "i am not a robot" and continue; other times i have to complete a (or several!) captcha before i can proceed.

Also, whether or not I get an AI reply above the results seems entirely random. Before, it used to happen every time, but now I often get "thinking" and then a blank space.

If, instead, I open Google.com and use that page to search, I never get the "unusual traffic" message or a need to complete a captcha. But the AI 'problem' persists.

These new "news" pop ups appear on certain websites and clicking on them opens a Google Gemini summary, i have disabled all of my plug-ins and this is still occurring. they also hyperlink words when they shouldn't be, and it quite frankly is very annoying. this is WITH all of Firefox’s AI features disabled while using the DuckDuckGo NoAI search engine. when i emailed the FlowerGame owners about it they had no idea that it was there, so this seems to be a local issue i just don't know how to fix it.

My bookmarks and settings are so messed up. I am frustrated as I am working on a project, and the browser no longer has the functionality it had before. I am considering switching to another browser in the next couple of days unless it is repaired.

Firefox is screwing my display with a screen logging warning message. Removal instructions are 100% useless.

This is so annoying. I’m sure its simples if you’re a techhie, but for muppets its hopeless, I’m desperate for a solution as i cant use Firefox now

When I go through the process to import bookmarks, passwords and such it does great, except none of the passwords import from Edge. No warnings, alarms or other notices. It acts like everything is fine.

All bookmarks I have tried to use just sit there and do nothing. Does not matter whether I use the listings down the left side of screen or I use the under the URL entry line. I have to type url or go to google and search for the address I want.
