Firefox Community Forum

The image I uploaded is all I am getting. I even got on line one on one with my McAfee and they got on my computer. I need help guys. Is not just browse, I am also having issues accessing the website I know my account has been compromise. All I did different is add 2 adds on that were recommended by Mozilla and I removed them but it looks like the damage was already done.

I am running Firefox in Windows 7 on a PC. When I start up Firefox, in WINDOWS Task Manager there appear between 20 and 30 instances of firefox.exe of different sizes in the Processes Window. I can End Process on most of them without shutting down Firefox or any of the other instances of firefox.exe. However if I shut down one listed with about 200,000K of Memory (Private Working Set), then Firefox shuts down and all other instances of Firefox disappear. If I open an new tab in Firefox, more instances of firefox.exe appear.

I have never seen this behavior before. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox, but the same behavior occurred. Is this normal behavior, or should I be concerned?

I have enclosed screen shots from the Task Manager. I also have a Dump File of a couple of the firefox.exe instances, including the large one, if that would be helpful.

Thank you.

When I open FF 137 on my iMac running OS 12.7.6, it just keep trying and trying with no link. When I try and quit it needs to be forced quick to stop running. There are no fire walls and it worked yesterday 4-5-25 just fine, but no go today. I tried replacing FF and still no luck, what do I try now, [email removed]@yahoo.com

I restarted Firefox on my Mac earlier, which I think updated it from 136 to 137. After reopening it, web pages won’t load anymore. They either time out or just load indefinitely without doing anything. I went through the troubleshooting page and tried reinstalling it, which didn’t help. My computer’s firewall is off as well. I’ve tried refreshing it multiple times, and I get a message that Firefox has crashed before it actually refreshes. After that, pages will load normally for a very short amount of time (about 30 seconds) before stopping again. Pages are still loading normally on Chrome and Safari, so it’s only Firefox that’s having an issue. Does anyone have any solutions for what this could be/ways to fix it?

I have observed that firefox has a coloring problem. When firefox is minimized to the toolbar, after a while, maybe a few minutes, when it is opened, there is always black uncolored content at the bottom of the screen, occupying about 1/3 of the height.

Attached are two screenshots.

I recently updated my Firefox browser from version 136. to version 137. and after the update I was unable to get online to any website I tried and Firefox would freeze and crash, generating a crash report that Mozilla probably didn't get because firefox couldn't send it. Safari was working, as was Chrome, so I know it wasn't a network issue. I cleared the cache and tried again and still nothing. I then uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it from the Mozilla website, (had to use Safarii to get the Mozilla website) and still could not get to any websites. I'm on a Mac runnning OS 15.3.2 and I have a bootable backup of my machine that still had a copy of Firefox v 136 which i reinstalled on my mac and it works. What can I do to update to 137?

From the last two Firefox updates, I no longer can move sites screens around on my Mac Air laptop. Only one page at a time shows up and consumes the screen. I am no longer able to copy and past and move info to another screen. A couple of weeks agom I cleared my cache but not sure that had anything to do with it. Please suggest solutions. Is there an add on or something that needs adjusting?

Thank you.

Hi Team,

When we enable Netskope, all the searches breaks (specifically with Google Search Engine). It takes about 2 to 3 mins to do the first search, after which it continues to work normally.

Furthermore, facebook takes too long to load (~4mins).

The netskope support team has asked us to make a few changes in about:config: 1. network.http.http3.enabled 2. QUIC protocol 3. network.udp.enabled

None of this works and even if it works, the problem is we have about 1500 devices.

Are there any reported issues ? And is there anything that we are missing ?

Firefox has recently started crashing multiple times per day. The crashes do not seem to be website specific.

Here is a list of my submitted crash reports. Please help.

Hello!

I would be very grateful if you could help me figure it out, the browser suddenly stopped working, does not open any tabs, just a blank screen, does not open settings, some buttons simply do not respond at all. I cleaned the SScleaner yesterday, but I did not select anything special there, it was a basic regular cleaning that the program offers.

How do I fix this? reinstalling does not help, the browser still does not work

I have had this issue for a couple weeks now with youtube. When running in a private tab it will frequently not accept input for something like 10 seconds at a time. Playback works totally fine, no real stuttering or lag in the video, but pressing pause will generally take significant time to actually pause. This is true of all other inputs including keyboard commands, clicking on links, right click, etc. It seems to have a rolling window where inputs are accepted because if I wait for clicking play to work I can also quickly change the volume or right click a link. It'll even accept the input if I'm in a different window (like if I hit play then click over to my second monitor). This doesn't seem to happen in a normal window, only private. All other firefox tabs work totally fine with none of this lag, nor do I see any other issues on my computer. I haven't noticed any spikes in hardware usage nor am I using anywhere near all of my PC's resources.

I'm only running 2 extensions I think would interfere here (ublock origin and enhancer for youtube) and I've tried running with them disabled to no effect. All my extensions are up to date, as are my browser and OS, this has persisted through restarts (though it seems to take some time to come into effect after a restart). I've tried disabling hardware acceleration and clearing the cache.

So yeah, no idea what's wrong. It's not like unusable, just really annoying. Thanks to anyone that helps.

I walked away from my laptop for about an hour and when I came back my task bar was gone. What happened to it? and how do I get it back? Below is the spec's of my lap top that I use/have been using/task bar missing
