If I use the close window shortcut (ctrl+shift+w) in Firefox it fails to close the window and treats every action I try to take as if the shift and ctrl keys were held down. For example, clicking on a tab will select it as if I were trying to move it as a group, rather than switching to it. Or, pressing only the T key will reopen closed tabs as if I had pressed ctrl+shift+T. This behavior will persist in Firefox until I close out of it completely and reopen. This does not occur when any other application is focused and ctrl+shift+w is pressed, and the effects are isolated to Firefox only when it does occur. Due to this, I do not believe that it is a hardware issue, eg. my keys just getting stuck. I haven't seen anything online that even vaguely resembles this issue. Any solution would be appreciated, even if it is disabling the ctrl+shift+w shortcut, as I keep pressing it out of habit and needing to close and reopen all of my tabs.

Please tell me why this happens daily. I cannot access my laptop after a break at 10:00 am..... for some reason, Firefox freezes, only thing that will work is the Chrome browser.

Firefox will not load any websites, it’s like there is some kind of connection issue. My network is fine, other browsers work fine, but Firefox seems to be ‘stuck’. I tried some of the recommendations like the ipv6 config, and DNS prefetching. No viruses came up on scans. I am using version 137.0.2 On MacOS 10.15.7. I also think the problem might be that it seems to be constantly checking for updates and there is no way to stop it. I deselected the ‘automatically install updates’ option, but it’s still spinning as it checks for updates and there appears to be no way to stop it.

I reported a problem here about having an inability to login to Freecycle but had no trouble when using Chrome. I now have a problem with Waitrose.com. I tried to enter the weekend competition but after entering all the data there appeared a message saying something had gone wrong and to try agian later. This I did but the same thing happened. Fortified by my experience using Chrome I tried using it to enter and did so without any problem. I tried turning off enhanced tracking but this had no effect

Hi,

I'm on a fresh Windows and the CPU usage is waaaaay too big. When TB is out of focus, it uses about 10% of my CPU. This can go up to 15% when the window is active. It's not doing anything, not downloading or compacting or anything.

Thanks !

How do I clear the offending one half page describing some new pdf function that is covering the right side of the printer control page and cannot be removed. This does not occur in other browsers such as Chrome

I keep getting this message- With firefox I get this message: Close Firefox Firefox is already running, but is not responding. The old Firefox process must be closed to open a new window.

I have followed the instructions to resolve this, but none of them are working.

I don't know how predictive text turned on but it's running in facebook and gmail. Settings in gmail for predictive texting is turned off, but predictive text continues to run.

I think I am in he correct forum - my apologies of I am "off base" but I am ignorant of computer technology I use an accounting software "reckon" - a programme that originated in America I run firefox as my default browser I run my E mails through G mail

I send invoices from reckon in PDF format attached to an e mail created in Reckon to my clients. Everything ran perfectly (and has done for years) on April 1st. Last week Reckon failed and told me I had the password wrong. (This is rubbish - as nothing has changed) After a week of talking to Reckon help desk I was told that it was Firefox/Gmail who have changed the system and will no longer accept third party interactions. (I think that is what he meant)

Can anyone give me a work round?? Other than printing and scanning and sending manually - I did this yesterday and the time it took was just mind boggling. Many Thanks for any thoughts - as I am not technically minded please be simple in your responses
