Hi, I'm writing this because this problem is very frustrating. Quite frequently my games (e.g. Valorant, Overwatch) will start lagging if I have Firefox open in the background. To fix this, I have to close and reopen Firefox. Sometimes, I would open a tab while gaming and that would also cause the game to lag.

In game, the ping starts at the normal level then rises before falling back down to normal.

Are there any solutions?

Regards Thomas

Hi all,

I am using Firefox 106.0.5 (64 bit). I cannot copy an image from Firefox and paste on to the WhatsApp app. The following steps however work:

  • copy the image
  • paste to a document editor (MS-Word) or image editor
  • copy again
  • paste to WhatsApp

Is this an intended change?

I am trying to open .html files located on my hard drive, but Firefox gives the error:

File not found

Firefox can’t find the file at /usr/share/gimp/2.0/help/en/gimp-pimping.html.

   Check the file name for capitalization or other typing errors.
   Check to see if the file was moved, renamed or deleted.

I can see the files at this location and even when I directly open the files from that location by double clicking them, I get this error. I have seen on Ubuntu forums that this might be a problem with the actual Firefox snap, any official help would be appreciated. Thanks.

When I download new font families, sometimes firefox displays the incorrect font on previously working web pages. The attached image shows what the web page should look like on top, and how firefox is displaying the wrong font on the bottom. This happens on multiple web pages, and this is the second time this is happening to me. The previous time this happened, I uninstalled the font that was being wrongly displayed and everything worked as normal afterward. This time I tried to find and uninstall the font, and wound up uninstalling a bunch of fonts and still having the issue.

I'm aware that there's a setting for me to choose which fonts websites display, and while this allows the correct font to show, it also causes other display issues; as shown in my second image, symbols turn into letters.

Is there another way to resolve this? I'd like to have a solution in case this occurs again.

Firefox is not saving my settings when I close it. This can happen for various settings, e. g. if I allow a pop-up exception, or a cookie override exception, for a specific site, and save the setting, it will be gone whenever I close and restart Firefox.

Also, bookmarks are not saved - apparently somewhat randomly.

I currently have Firefox 160.0.6 64 bit. However, this has been going on with the last several versions of Firefox.

I have uninstalled Firefox, discarded the folder containing my profile, then reinstalled Firefox. But the problem still exists.

First, this post is basically Congratulations for Firefox upon working almost flowlessly under this extreme heavy load without crashing. Saving/loading sessions works well. (which is unexpected but makes me _very_ happy :-)) Firefox exits properly without any exceptions, no matter how long it runs, or how many times the PC is sent to STR mode meanwhile.

Second, everything is fine, except RAM usage. No matter how many RAM is installed, Firefox takes up all of it after a few days of normal operation. I have recently upgraded my PC from 16 to 24 GB of RAM only for this sole reason to see if anything changes, but it did not produce any noticable change, except that it takes 5-7 days for Firefox to fill up all the RAM instead of the 3-4 days before. Disk space on C: drive was nullified by Firefox as the paging file went up to 50 GB.

I want to hunt down this thing. I have approx. 300 tabs, 2 addons, and Hardware Acceleration is disabled since otherwise Fox hangs several times a day (have to be killed from outside). Pics are attached. https://addons.mozilla.org/hu/firefox/addon/tree-tabs/ https://gitlab.com/kroppy/TreeTabs

I'd like to get suggestions where to start.

  1. Disabling or replacing the adblocker ?
  2. Inspecting memory usage on Process Manager (about:processes) and Task Manager (about:performance) pages ?
  3. Installing some external tools like Firemin ?

Please don't suggest neither safe mode nor disabling all addons, since that makes it impossible to reproduce this amount of load, which is the primary reason behind the symptom.

I PrtScr'ed Process Manager and Task Manager, see that RAM sizes per page are normal in Task Manager, but not in Process Manager (10 times more).

CPU usage is totally normal for this load, even when memory is in the heaven. See the TaskMan pic. (I suppose that's because of ad blocking)

Thanks for any ideas,

Peter B. (I'm PC enthusiast)

Firefox loads only the top line of Facebook, with the Facebook logo, and nothing else. Troubleshoot mode does, after several minutes, load Facebook properly, but only for one session and then it's back to square one for any further sessions. Firefox has no problem, apparently, with any other website I use. Edge browser has no problem with Facebook at all. There is no error message. This problem exists in Windows 10, identically on both my HP desktop and my Lenovo laptop, and started at the same time on both, a couple of days ago.

I am looking for a way to enable Firefox to copy and paste PNG images with transparency. Right now, copy/pasting a transparent image replaces the transparent areas with solid black. This feature works as expected in all other mainstream browsers (it's something I use a lot in my workflow as a graphic designer for a website).

This bug has existed for a while, I'm hoping by now there is at least one extension that fixes it, or some kind of workaround. Thanks to anyone who can help.

I'm trying restrict usage of fingerprinting for my browser. I've already checked some articles and resources, for example this one: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-protection-against-fingerprinting

Currently my setup is like this: - I set "Enhanced Tracking Protection" to "strict" - I set "privacy.resistFingerprinting" to "true" - I'm using uBlock Origin

But still when I visit https://amiunique.org/fp I'm getting the information that I'm unique. The worst performance is amongst: Headers attributes:

  • Content language: <0.01%

Javascript attributes:

  • User agent - 0.49%
  • Content language - 0.04%
  • Canvas - Unique (this is weird because I'm even getting a notification about blocked canvas, maybe it is a quirk of this website)
  • Screen height - 0.05%
  • Screen available Height - 0.07%
  • Media devices - Unique

Is it expected for Firefox to fail that test? By Firefox own marketing I expected that I'm protected from fingerprinting but in fact I'm not. And worst yet it isn't even turned on by default.

What can I do more to actually block fingerprinting? I tried Ghostery and Privacy Badger extensions but they didn't seem to help so I removed them.

Dears, I searched google and youtube, and I changed as many setting on Firefox and Google as I could find, including you own advice:

" Firefox To enable or disable translation in Firefox:

   Open the Firefox menu in the top right of the browser window.
   Click Preferences.
   Click Choose in the Language and Appearance section.
   Select a language to add.
   Click OK."

It does not help! I STILL receive stupid translations from the languages that I have chosen and added. It is extremely annoying...

Looking forward to your urgent help. Thank you in advance, Daiva
