I have set a primary password, and it all works exactly as it should. But, when I first start firefox, if I type too quickly, my keystrokes find their way to the address bar, rather than the primary password entry pop-up. AFAICT this is because the address bar is automatically selected as the focus for typing at firefox startup.

This sometimes means I've put the first few characters of my password into a search. And with search completion, I worry that these characters get either recorded or worse sent over the Internet.

Is there any way to deselect the address bar before I've entered my primary password? I don't want single site browsing or such, just for either my keystrokes to be buffered and sent to the primary password pop-up, or for the keyboard to block until said pop-up appears.

Firefox freezes randomly when switching between tabs

Hi,

I’m using the latest version of Firefox on Windows 11 (currently v126.0), and I’ve noticed a recurring issue: the browser freezes for a few seconds when I switch between tabs, especially if one of the tabs contains a media-heavy website (like YouTube or online editors).

The browser doesn’t crash, but becomes unresponsive for 5–10 seconds before catching up. Task Manager shows a CPU spike during the freeze. I’ve tried the following:

-Clearing cache -Disabling all extensions -Running in Troubleshoot Mode -Updating graphics drivers

None of these solved the issue.

Is this a known problem? Any suggestions on how to fix or further debug it?

Thanks in advance!

I know, sounds stupid, but it is what it is. It happens rarely, only with Firefox on the secondary display from my laptop, via HDMI. It starts with some random few thin horizontal bars across the window itself, and soon, it turns off my display. It seems the bigger the window is, the more severe the issues. So full screen usually, it shuts it off and keeps it off. Not black screen, no signal style. I manage to get it out by Winkey+arrow. If i then put it back same issue. If i lower the width of it, it manages to stay coherent longer, but still resets the display with a quick black screen on page reload. The lower bounds on a 1920x1080 display resolution was 1515 pixels. At 1515 pixels, it works fine, once this is triggered, it's very repeatable on 60-70% of webpages. If i drag another window on top of Firefox, the monitor comes back up.

Before anyone asks: I have tried turning off hardware acceleration. I have tried putting firefox.exe to run on the integrated video card and on the dedicated 1060 Max Q videocard. I have cleared cache and etc.

This persists on a Windows session, across multiple Firefox restarts. A computer restart technically fixes it but i have no clue what triggers it. Laptop monitor works fine.
