Technical issues After update. I have two computers both of which some problems since the latest Update in February. The microphone won't work on certain apps. One of my extensions are operating as expected and Firefox is not closing all the way or so it's reported. When I go to open up again a new session, it says it's already open but not responding. I have the option close it and then starts right up.

Hi,

I’ve recently noticed that after a Firefox update, the browser has become very slow and unresponsive whenever I open multiple tabs, around 5–10. Before this update, I could open many tabs without any noticeable lag.

Now, new tabs take a long time to load, scrolling within open tabs feels choppy, and sometimes Firefox freezes for a few seconds before responding again.

I’ve already tried restarting Firefox, disabling extensions one by one, and clearing the cache, but none of these steps have improved the performance. I’m using Windows 10 and the latest version of Firefox.

Could anyone suggest what settings or troubleshooting steps I can try to fix this slowdown?

Firefox is not responding. Also various apps are not showing/responding. Apps I use every day have disappeared and when I go into the App Store and search for them they are not even listed.

As long as my computer doesn't go to sleep Im fine. If it does, when i open firefox, i must refresh to be able to find my bookmarks and passwords. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance! Micha

There is a stuttering when i browsing, i do a lot of switching tabs when browsing. The stutter occurs at about every 15 sec, the browser like stopped for half a second, doesn't much but annoying. I cant scrolling, it stopped showing next alphabet when im typing, but still registered what im typing. but when playing videos on youtube the videos is not affected. i do running adblock ublock origin, i tried to switch it off, but it doesnt much affect my laptop performance, and the stuttering still there. i have also have tried doing gfx.webrender.layer-compositor set to true on about:config

Starting about a week or two ago, I noticed the text of Firefox is grainy. But when the cursor moved, it would get grainy in a different way. So, some letters which were previously unreadable became readable, but other letters became unreadable.

Going to the same web pages with other browsers renders the page readable. So, the problem seems to be Firefox specific.

Even while typing this, portions of the characters on my screen blink in and out.

If there is no solution, I will have to utilize some other browser.

Thank you,

My firefox broswer is starting super slow since the last update. I am on a windows 10 lap top running McAfee anti virus software.

In my task manager there are multiple firefox icons running. See the attached screen shots.

I copied one of the crash report into the note section below.

If any one know show to correct this slow start up pleas let me know.

Thank you Dale
