Since recently 1~2 version, my Firefox keeps consume large amount of memory and release it repeatedly

Even I restart Firefox and do nothing, it will start doing this again

I use about:processes and about:memory to capture this seems the main process's "tab.query" causing this, please check

PS: sometime it will consume till system max (64GB) and cause my OS out of memory. PS2: that wave-like memory usage is cause by Firefox

Not sure if this is a silly question to ask, but I've noticed that when I use browser Instagram on Firefox it displays emoticons as emojis. For example if I type "<3" (less than 3) it'll display a heart emoji. It doesn't actually convert it In the message though, my friends say it sends what I type.

I'm just wondering why this is happening and how to stop it, I've checked settings for everything and cannot find anything about it. Thank you in advance.

I shop on several websites, and the customer review section does not appear on the product pages. Thinking extensions may be to blame, I tried opening those particular websites in a new private window. But I still was unable to see the reviews. It works fine on Edge. Is there any way to fix this?

The instruction FireFox provided state that I should go to the chrome menu, i.e., the three dots. From there, FireFox instructed me to go to the passwords and autofill option, and that once I select the passwords and autofill option a link to download the passwords will appear. No link to download the passwords appeared. How do I move my passwords from chrome to FireFox?

Hi there,

We are using the pigiarniq font family as the web font for a website, it's rendering it correctly in Chrome, MS edge and Safari, but it's rendering differently in firefox browser. There are wide spacings between words if you compare it in other browsers.

I have attached the screenshots below: - firefox.jpg : how the text render in firefox - chrome.jpg  : how the text render in chrome

I am using Firefox version 140.0.2 (64-bit)

Is this a known issue in firefox? and is there a solution to fix the word spacing?

thank you!

Hi,

Firefox version: 139.0.4 (64-bit) OS: Windows 11

I have been having issues where Firefox tab will just crash out for no reason it appears and it happens at random times and once the tab start to crash, and I restore it, it will crash again and again. The only way tog et out of the loop is to restart Firefox.

I have tried: Refreshing/Reset, Clearing Cache and History removing all themes, disabling extensions, disabling my anti virus. Turning off hardware acceleration didn't make any different.

I currently have 2 extensions enabled: uBlock Origin 1.64.0 and Bitwarden Password Manager 2025.5.0

In the about:Crashes I have reported them all and they seem to have the same type of reasons in the Raw data/Minidump which are: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION_WRITE EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION_READ

Any help as to what to try next?

Firefox on my Windows 11 machine does not display a bar at the bottom of the screen. This is a problem when a web page is wider than my display, there is not slide bar at the bottom to grab and pan to the right. I have not found a way to get the bar back. Is this intentional? Am I missing something?

Hello, I have just upgraded to windows 11. On firefox I used to be able to right mouse click on the firefox icon in the taskbar to select my saved saved (Pinned) websites. In the past with Windows 10 I right mouse clicked on the url of favorite websites then drag and drop on the firefox icon in the taskbar and that was it. On Windows 11 that no longer works. How do I pin my favorite websites to the firefox icon in the taskbar on Windows 11? I thank anyone for your help.
