So when I open some websites such as the RimWorld wiki ( https://rimworldwiki.com ), whenever i scroll my gpu for firefox launches straight to 100% and becomes extremely laggy. I have no idea what is causing this. My friends and other browsers run it completely fine. I have tried troubleshoot mode, gotten rid of all my extensions and themes, removed all cookies and cache and nothing works. My drivers are all updated, and I have truly just given up. If anyone has any solutions I would be much obliged.

I am using the Raindrop (raindrop.io) bookmark manager. It has been working fine on Firefox for years. However, with my recent update to Firefox 140, it is broken. Specifically, I can no longer use the highlighting function. It works fine on Chrome, but not on Firefox. I've seen several similar reports on Reddit's Firefox forum (r/firefox).

What to do? I don't want to have to switch to Chrome. Suggestions appreciated.

I was finally forced to update my Firefox to the released version. I am increasingly unable to log in to various "secure" websites with Firefox 140...1 although Chrome 106 (old, but can't update) has no problem. There are also a number of captchas that are simply invisible to firefox. Why is this happening?

For the past several days, I can no longer access my two hotmail.com email pages. I keep getting the message to "check back later." I tried using Edge, and it worked there. Then I tried using DuckDuckGo and Brave, and hotmail worked on both. So, this problem only exists when using FireFox which is the site I use by default.

Problem logging onto Zoho Mail with Firefox.

I have been using both Firefox and Zoho Mail for many years. Now, for some reason, Firefox seems to have a problem completing the Zoho Mail login from the same bookmark I have been using for years, or from a direct URL. The same Firefox installation cannot access Google Maps from a bookmark or directly using a complete URL, but does access some other applications as always.

Now the curious (to me, anyway) part. If I open a new private Firefox window, I can log into both Zoho Mail and Google Maps as I used to from the Firefox private window using bookmarks.

This helps me pinpoint Firefox as the problem – one part working, the other not.

My Firefox is up to date [Version 140.0.4 (64 bit)], and I have scanned all 1,350,000-plus files on my system for viruses and potential startup issues.

Should I reinstall Firefox? If so, how do I do that while keeping my bookmarks and password files?

If I use another browser (i.e., “Google Chrome), I can access both Zoho Mail and Google Maps with no difficulty. That is not a solution for me.

Firefox has been my foundation browser for decades. I don’t want to have to use anything else.

I have had a google account and a YouTube Channel ([email_1]@gmail.com) for decades. I recently added a new google email ([email_2]@gmail.com) and accustomed my old YouTube channel for [email_1]@gmail.com with the new email, [email_2]@gmail.com. On other browsers when I comment, the old YouTube account with the new email shows up as the commentor. Today, on my new Firefox browser.I discovered that the new email had created another YouTube channel which showed up as my ID for a comment on another YouTube channel. I deleted the new YouTube channel but, when I comment with the brand new Firefox browser, the old YouTube channel I deleted shows up. How can I correct that?
