Firefox Community Forum

My question is a very obvious one if you look at the two screenshots I've attached. The 'X' to close the Firefox browser keeps disappearing, along with the 'maximize' and 'minimize' options as well. This has been happening for months. The recurrence rate is 50/50 each time I open the FF browser. It's not just an issue with closing or minimizing a page, it also removes the access to my Windows taskbar at the bottom!! Normally, when I move my mouse to the bottom, my taskbar pops up and I can access whatever I need, BUT when the FF browser has NO 'X' at the top corner, my taskbar won't show up at all! This is finally getting on my last nerve!🤦♀

Any knowledge as to why this keeps happening?🤷♀

My FF browser is up to date, as of yesterday. My default search engine is google. My PC is still running Windows 10.....could this be the problem?

For the last couple of days, the Firefox instance goes black and the title bar turns to an old windows look (see picture). Or turns fully blue, the color of browser theme, and the title bar is covered as well. There is no certain page that makes this bug appear, it appears randomly regardless of the page I'm visiting. Often it happens on the Firefox instance that is on the monitor I'm not working on at that moment. For example, I am browsing on my main monitor, and the 2nd monitor has a page open, the page in the 2nd monitor becomes bugged. It happens the other way too. Current Firefox version is 149.0 64 bit version, but i think it happened before the update too. I have already tried to turn hardware acceleration on and off again.

When playing YouTube videos in Firefox, the video constantly hangs or freezes. I have to restart the browser to continue playback. This happens every time I try to watch videos on youtube. what is going on?

Why I am receiving regular message from web page "https://fno.5paisa.com/open-interest/oi-dashboard?name=HINDALCO&exch=N&exchtype=D" that this page is slowing firefox, stop it ?

I've just now noticed that whenever I open the website hxxps://www.hex-rays.com it will hang without finishing loading for a couple of seconds, then the entire browser will freeze. I've already tried on a new profile, verified that no addons or plugins are installed there, and no DLLs hooked into the process. This happens on my physical PC and in an (almost unused) VM, with an ancient version 134.0 and the latest 149.0.

Can anyone else replicate this? Should I create a bug report?

I have a problem: when I open any Instagram reels link like from google , facebook , forum , etc https://www.instagram.com/reels/****/ the browser freezes. After a bit, a “stop” message shows up. When I click it, it opens a blank page like the one in the screenshots, and the tab completely freezes — I can’t go back, forward, or even close it. Even if I close the browser, it keeps running in the background. There are no extensions enabled (I’m using troubleshoot mode). windows 10 64

I started noticing my browser was running rough, and I tracked it down to Youtube, but only when I have a video in fullscreen. It doesn't appear to be affected by the codec, av0/avc/vp09 all suffer from it.

Incognito mode (no extensions) is still affected by it, but a separate profile + troubleshoot mode are not. My RTX 5080 is showing about 2% usage when playing a video, 0% at idle.

How do I nail down what's causing this?

Select the text in the text input box to type (overlay typing), the Chinese input method will flash, then nothing will be typed and the selected text will disappear. 在文本输入框中选中文字进行打字（覆盖打字），中文输入法会闪一下，然后什么也打不出来并且选中的文字也不见了。 As in the following figure, it almost always happens when you select and overwrite text. 就像下面图中情景一样，对文字进行选择覆盖的时候几乎一定会发生。

Version 148 is very slow. When there are 5-10 downloads, other websites won't open. That's why I use version 140. And why are there so many files in the folder - ....profile\storage\permanent\chrome

When I launch Firefox, it uses well under 1GB in memory, but then it starts to increase that amount quickly in just a few minutes and gets up to 50+GB, causing error messages to pop up repeatedly until it uses all resources and locks up my computer. I have updated my MAC OS and the Firefox app, uninstalled the Firefox App and still have the same problem.

Please help

Sporadically over the past year, a virus warning, purportedly from Apple, has locked my FireFox screen. I must Force Quit to unlock FoxFire. See images. Is this a scam?

I have around 60 tabs open accross 5 windows, and whenever I try to open a new tab, Firefox takes many minutes to load completely. I've restarted Firefox and the problem is solved for a few days, and then it persists. I've been using Google, but I want to keep using Firefox. Fix it now please.

在 Firefox 内部：

通过 JS 触发的新页面 通过 a.click 触发的新页面 甚至 rel=noopener 都会被标记为：

“related browsing context”

进而共享同一个进程，新页签因为内存占用过高，导致旧页签卡死。

通过设置

1. 添加 COOP 响应头 add_header Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy "same-origin" always;也无法解决

设置空白页再重定向也无法解决
