tell me who knows, how to stop all tabs? Even when I enable the "offline mode", tabs with heavy javascript continue trying to load, consuming CPU resources. I want they to stop immideately. I tried different extensions, but results are unsatisfactory. Does anybody know some trick? My goal is to find a method to flush all javascript structures in RAM. I explored about:memory, and tried the vmmap.exe (process memory analyzer) from the Sysinternals Suite, but I have not succeeded so far. Auto unload tab -- is not a solution. For example I clicked on links and opened 30 tabs in background. PC starts working very slow, Now I want to stop all them, and to read the loaded information (webpages). How to do it? I think it is the weakest side of Firefox. Needed to abrupt all attempts to make network connection, after the "offline mode" is enabled. I need something to stop javascript's attempts to connect, to calm it down. I want to start read webpages already loaded, and javascript occupies CPU. To kill threads in the Process Manager is not a way to do at all, Auto-unload also, I want to read those webpages. I have enough of RAM, it is not used more then a half. Many years ago, when there was HTML4, I used for a little the Maxton browser. It had a button to stop all pages. All similiar Firefox extensions do not act effectively like that. the issue not in scarcity of RAM, but in a badly design of browser's architecture, that javascript occupies users' PCs.

Every time I try to make or receive a call it asks for permission to use microphone in Gmail Hangouts https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox . I have it set to "Allow". https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox When a call comes in or I try to make one it does not have the check mark box "Always Allow" on the little pop up window as I have seen before. I can set it to always allow by right clicking the chat window and page info, yet it keeps on asking for permission to use. -- It DOES show as being allowed both in the list in Options and when you check the page Info.
I thought maybe it has something to do with Flash ending, but when I use Hangouts on the Hangouts page: https://hangouts.google.com/ it works fine. And yes, I have removed all cookies and cache several times. Another thing I noticed is that you can't add any pages manually in the options. Not sure if that is related. Note that I use Firefox and Windows 7 .
Been searching for an answer since this started over a month ago. Thank you in advance for your help.

I have done everything that is in the support answers, but to no avail. When I open FF in my jalopy (10 yr old computer), all my current bookmarks, and history for the past 5 years are still there. After copying the profile, and the entire Mozilla folder (separate attempts), and over-copying the folder in my new computer, there is no change; the files only go back to when I first installed FF on it. None of your support answers say anything about whether to copy the jalopy files into the local, or roaming folders, so I copied it into both. Still no difference.
In a related migration/replace problem, I cannot sync my new computer with the old, even though they're both in the same account name. The jalopy and new computer names are both recognized in the jalopy, but the new computer doesn't pick up the old computer name. This was the first thing I tried to reconcile the two machines. I am extremely frustrated, and at my wits end dealing with this problem. Any reasonable assistance and solutions are appreciated. Thank you.
P.S. If there is a response, will I receive an email or message on my FF account, or do I have to read through 800 instances to find the answer?

Can't Log In to SSA Website

About six months ago, I posted here https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1265504 b/c I was unable to log into the AT&T website. Seems others had the same issue but on various other wireless service sites and for various reasons - mine ended up being that either AT&T or UBlock had made some changes and I was forced to turn off UBlock at least for the log-in page. Later, I ended up having to kill both UBlock and AdBlock on another provider's website or the system would not recognize that I had scheduled a payment.
Now I find that I cannot log into the Social Security Administration's website. I started off by pausing AdBlock with no luck. I then turned off UBlock - no help. Turned both ad blockers OFF for the site - no luck. I then went into Options and tweaked various settings, reloading tabs if that was required, otherwise I relaunched the browser before trying to log in to the SSA site again.
When I first experienced an issue attempting to log in on the SSA on 20 November, I had FF vs 70.0.1. Yesterday, FF started nagging me to upgrade to 71.0 - which I did so today before attempting again to get logged in to the SSA site. I was hoping that would fix the problem....
I do not visit the SSA website often, but I had never had any log-in issue until 20 November. While on the phone with a SSA site support rep on 04 December, I expressed that I felt my blocking of tracking cookies and 3rd party cookies should not be the issue - the rep agreed. And just FYI, the rep also agreed that my ad blockers should not have been an issue. Reluctantly, I went to MS Edge - I was able to log in. I am not well-versed in MS Edge's settings/options, but I do know that advanced settings/options are only available while signed in to a MS account. I neither trust nor use Edge (or IE for that matter) and do not have a MS account, so I had no intention of creating one just to see how to lock down and make that browser more secure - if that's possible.
I have checked the post "Fix login issues on websites that require a username and password." *Options>Privacy & Security>Cookies and Site Data>Manage Permissions>https://secure.ssa.gov - ALLOW *FF is (and always has been) set to clear history each time the browser is closed, so as I expected, I found nothing in Library>History>Show All History, and so could clear nothing *FF is (and always has been) set to clear cookies and cache each time the browser is closed, but I followed the Library>History>Clear Recent History>Time Range:Everything and hit the "Clear Now" button anyway *Add-ons and security settings tweaked as advised above, to include reducing "Enhanced Tracking Protection" down to only 'Standard.' *I did not check for corrupt cookie files as I prefer to leave this as a last resort. However, I do not use the 'saved log ins' feature or use a master password - I get the impression that is what would be affected if I followed the provisions outlined, and so may not apply to my issue. Right?
All that said... does anyone have any idea why I cannot log in to the SSA site using FF?

As Firefox often responds slow to my actions on my Compaq Presario CQ5303NL I have tried solving this by raising the priority of some of the 8 to 10 firefox.exe processes from Normal to High (with 3 Firefox windows and about 20 tabs open). This is done with the Task Manager. However the last month every 10 to 20 minutes the priority settings are reversed and about four firefox.exe processes are then set to Low priority at regular time intervals. This also seems to result in slow response to mouseclicks. Are you aware of this phenomenon? Is this something Firefox does by itself, or is this intervention coming from Windows 10. I notice that when I put explorer.exe in high priority, this lasts till shutdown of the computer, as with other manageble processes.
This is not a serious problem. It's more questioning what Windows is doing with Firefox. (memory is 6GB)

Any selection box, the border is so 'thin' or 'faint' it is very hard to see. Running win10 Dell 24" monitor If I do -options-colors-Override the colors specified by the page with your selections above=always, then textboxes are visible, BUT now most if not all graphics are gone and the layout is VERY different to the point some webpages are not all there (it seems to me).

I want to disable private mode via a policies.json file, but it doesn't work. Firefox says that "policy service is inactive" I enabled the debugging for policies via about:config, but the log doesn't give anything that forwards towards my policies.json file.
I'm running Fedora 31 linux. The exact same policies.json file does work on my Ubuntu machine, but not this one.

I'm trying to restore my bookmarks after reinstalling Windows 10. They were saved in a windows.old file on my Passport. I used the Import and Backup button, selected Restore, and choose my file. It's a json file. It then gave me an error message "unsupported file type."
BTW, the file ends in .jsonlz45dd510a6. It's not recognized as a json file, so I had choose 'all files" and then highlighted it to select it, and received the above error message. I then tried making a copy but omitting the letters and numbers after .jason, and tried using that, but got an error message "unable to process the backup file."

When I need to use a website for which Firefox has a login stored, the usual box comes up asking for my Master Password. But it won't accepted my Master Password when I enter it. And it won't let me cancel the box/request for Master Password. I know my password well as I use it on a daily basis. Nonetheless, I tried entering it into the popup box 6 times, and it's still not being accepted. Why has Firefox suddenly stopped accepting my Master Password. I am in desperate need of accessing several websites today that require logins that have been stored on Firefox.

I have a Firefox account and use it to sync across devices; being able to sync and then completely log out on one device is a primary reason I use Firefox.
I log out of devices that I do not own when I'm exiting Firefox. Today I opened Firefox on a device that I'm 100% certain I logged out of yesterday - and found that my bookmarks, bookmarks bar, and add-ons were already visible and active, and one of my add-ons was already logged in.
I verified that the Firefox Sync / login screen showed that no one was logged into the Firefox account, and then I logged in using my usual credentials. It reflected that I was then logged in, but everything else remained visible.
I followed Firefox instructions for viewing the logs, and strangely, there was no log. I went up a directory, and found that all the logs were in the 'failed' directory. Clicking on each of the failed subfolders shows only: ids []
This is very concerning because it entirely negates the security and privacy aspects of having a login. I was not logged into Firefox - and the Firefox interface confirmed that this morning, in addition to confirming it when I logged out yesterday - yet somehow not only were my personal bookmarks showing, but one of my add-ons was also logged in, providing further access to anyone who might have opened a Firefox window from this device.
