If you have software (screen readers, Windows touchscreen software or anti-spyware) that requests access to Firefox's accessibility features, Firefox limits the software's accessibility feature access to web content to prevent stability issues. After restarting Firefox, it will default back to a single process mode and accessibility features will automatically be enabled. =How to re-enable Firefox's accessibility features= #To fully enable accessibility features after having received a notification, restart Firefox.
