when I type a incorrect work, FF shows it was wrong and right click show correct one for choice, I choose the right world and corrected the wrong one. Everything work fine until here.

After the correct work being selected, right click menu still show previous correction choice, and it keep building up words as more correction was made.

FYI I have English (United States) only installed.

This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.
