This issue has been happening for about 1-2 months.

When Firefox is open on my computer, my cursor will randomly lower its frame rate to a very low number, probably below 15 FPS. It doesn't matter what I'm doing, just having Firefox open, even in the background, causes this to happen. No such issues in other chrome-based browsers with or without hardware acceleration enabled. I have disabled all extensions and still encounter the problem.

Disabling hardware acceleration does fix this issue, but then the web, and even high resolution videos, become laggy or choppy as a result. Which is very uncharacteristic for my system, because I remember it being quite snappy in software mode on the my same CPU in the past. So something seems to have gone wrong in recent months that makes acceleration in general poor, with or without hardware acceleration on.

As described, firefox is entirely not working for any website. This happened after my computer crashed (hardware problem) and I restarted twice, but could be related to a firefox update that was waiting for me to restart.

Firefox updated itself recently (150.0.1) 64-bit Windows and since then we have US English and our other languages 'Real' English ;-) French and Greek disappeared. We reinstalled them but - sorry about this guys - we would like to remove US English please. I followed some advice from Google but couldn't locate the US-English Dictionary.

Earlier today the audio on Firefox stopped working. I have tried disabling extensions, checked output devices, reinstalled and it still doesn't work. Please Help. The Version is 150.0.1

When I choose to bookmark a website, I am no longer offered a chance to save to where I want it saved.

FF 146.0.1. Windows 10 pro

So, now I have to bookmark a page, and open the bookmark menu again to EDIT the bookmark to move it. This is Horrible. I have to do this eachj time I bookmark a page. I am veriy organized and have dozens of bookmark folder, some with folders within folders... etc.

Onliy children need to be treated this way.

I have searched the settings and find nothing. I am not using any add-on that has anything to do with bookmark. I do not use the bookmark toolbars or other bookmark interfaces. Just the file/edit... menu "bookmarks" option.,

Has this ability been removed?

'bold text YouTube is "acting insane, sound plays/picture is frozen. Can't pause it. Also can't start it! Ads play on without option to skip. I got some notice that YT was changing something, I think it is broken. I managed to get a video to play on MS Edge, but I normally do not use that. I cleared cache and ALL of that, rebooted computer, etc. connection is good. Searches are fine on firefox, Other sites are fine on firefox. . IT IS YOUTUBE! It is SO bad that now with my mouse, the arrow and hand are NOT showing up on the actual screen where video plays. Right now on here it is fine. but on youtube? no.

I am getting this page when trying to enter some of my accounts; including bank accounts

Are these real or hacker related?

I was sent the message: Your Firefox has been updated🎉 Celebrating 150 Firefox releases. It lists a lot of great things but I need to know if all those "great things" are free or do I have to pay for those perks. I do not understand most of what is being touted as great in the computer world, so I'm not sure if I want it or not.......

I've been extensively relying on the `Ctrl+Alt+X` shortcut to spin up the selected chatbot in the sidebar, but ever since I reset my pc (complete reset, cloud download of windows, clear all apps and files) and re-installed firefox, the keyboard shortcut isn't working for me anymore.

I installed firefox with chocolatey, upon noticing that the shortcut had stopped working, I tried to downgrade to v145, which didn't help either. So an uninstall and re-install later (this time manually downloading the installer exe), `Ctrl+Alt+X` still doesn't work. Although hovering over the chatbot's icon in the sidebar shows the shortcut in the tooltip.

More info: `choco uninstall firefox` created a backup of "Old Firefox Data" or something similar, could that have somehow persisted the malfunction across installs?

Any help would be appreciated! System: Windows 10 Pro Firefox: 146

Hi a few weeks ago i had the problem that my firefox-stored-passwords are gone and there are files named logins.json.corrupt and logins.json-1.corrupt to -4 The in dir backup was also corrupt. File length 122 -123 kb all nulls. If i look at the dates first to last, they span two weeks were i didnt notice the problem. PC is always hibernated after work. Except for one which i imported just before from edge at the end of the two week span No problem: logins replaced by external backup as i found here at the forum.

But: How can Firefox produce multiple corrupt files without noticing me? (I have saved them for reference) In that two weeks span logins using firefox passwords obviously worked. (I dont remember the details)

Then some updates and reboots. No problem. But after work i do always hibernation

TODAY: PC didnt survive hibernation. logins and in-dir backup are corrupt again.

What about a) checking better if something is going wrong (obiously you do something because you rename the files for some reason) b) Noticing the user c) And how on earth this can go wrong in the first place.

Now for the obscure: Both times somebody has just before posted something against the greatest President of all time at Fux Nus using this pc. Backdoor possible?

Thanks

Edit: Using Windows, no other problems with storage on the 1TB Samsung ssd

I am receiving "The page isn't redirecting properly - Firefox can't connect to server" error messages. This happens on nearly every website repeatedly for the last six? weeks. It does not happen in other browsers i.e. Chrome. I click the "Try Again" button in the Firefox error msg popup window over and over, 3-14+ times, to get past the error msg and access the site. When I try to login to many sites I am kicked out to the same error msg. Also kicked out of sites randomly when trying to navigate to another page on the same site. I had Claude AI take me step-by-step through all of the trouble shooting and adjustments to various settings. All of my extensions are off. I have had my ISP re-initialize my modem and I've run antivirus scans, still the problem persists. (Strangely YouTube does not have these problems) I love Firefox. I've got it setup just the way I like it. I have been using it for 20 years and during those two decades Firefox has been stable and had only minor glitches. I do not want to change my browser. Chrome feels clunky to me. I'm attaching three representative screen captures of the error msgs. Looking forward to anyone's help.
