The "ghost" caret also appears when I'm pressing left or right arrow keys to move the caret. It seems to be white, even when the real caret is black on white background. It is easily seen when a text field background is a dark color. It appears for about one frame, my screen refresh rate is 60Hz.
It doesn't seem to be a "fake" caret or merely a graphical element. When I'm editing a field of text, eg. in Google Docs, I've occasionally started editing or selecting text one character to the right. Like as if in that split second I just happened to send the keystroke when the ghost caret appeared. But because it was so brief, it is near impossible to replicate.
I've tried Firefox in safe-mode and there was no ghost caret. So I removed all add-ons/extensions, but the ghost caret still appears even if I have no extensions installed, which is why it's so baffling. I've refreshed and re-installed Firefox, both didn't work.
This "ghosting" only happens in Firefox, not in IE nor Chrome.
I used a screen capturing software and recorded this problem, then extracted a frame from the video to show the real caret and ghost caret side by side. Hope this better illustrates what I'm seeing. I have Dark Reader activated so the ghost caret can be easily seen. If Dark Reader isn't activated, it would be impossible to see due to the white background.
I do most of my work on cloud based platforms so this ghosting is very annoying and distracting. Or worse, could it be a keylogger or malicious program causing this?
Please help, Thank you!

CCleaner piggy-backed a browser on to the system uninvited which annoys me intensely Since then links on emails or in a video in a magazine may or may not work asking what do I need to open this or not able to open because of privacy?

My system setting for Firefox seem to out of order somehow which could well be me trying to get it to work properly! I am confident you will tell me to stop fiddling and do this or that

AD environment mix of Win 7 and 10. We are, over the last few days, getting reports of users who cannot open FF. It simply does not start nor show up in the task list as running,
Today I spent about an hour with one following the troubleshooting guide with no fix. Uninstalled, removed directory, installed old version. It simply will not run for end users or as admin when logged in as the user. It DOES run if logged in as a admin which would indicate a profile problem to me however deleting profile was not helpful.

I had a hard drive failure a while ago and, along with everything else, lost my browser profile folder.I recently finally got data recovery and got that profile folder back, but it's been so long since the crash that i've basically made my home in a new browser profile folder.I want to install my old folder in my browser, but keep all of the tabs and bookmarks i've accumulated in my current folder.Is there a way to take tabs and bookmarks from one browser profile and add them to another?I hope I explained the situation clearly enough.

I've sent emails back and forth with someone several time. The last time I added a few lines of information, no links, and tried to send it back. It gave me the warning that it looks like spam and wouldn't send it. I copied and pasted the entire body of the email into a new email, put in the same recipient's address, and it sent. This has happened several times. Why does it happen,? Is there a setting to turn off this warning? Thanks
