I have an HP Probook laptop with a Core-I5 CPU, 8 GB of RAM and a WD Black NVMe SSD running Windows 10 version 1809. it's about 4 months old and has been running fantastically. I use Firefox as my default browser and have had no problems with it until two days ago, when it suddenly developed a massive delay. it shows up in multiple ways. When opening a webpage, my CPU will jump to about 50% and I cannot scroll for a number of seconds, as many as 10 seconds. Also, highlighting/copying/pasting operations have as much as a 10-second delay before they appear on screen, and I sometimes cannot type in a search box for several seconds or text I do type doesn't appear in a search box for several seconds. I've tried refreshing Firefox and also starting it in safe mode with add-ons disabled, but the same symptoms happen then. I uninstalled and reinstalled and that had no effect. I performed a complete uninstall using Revo uninstaller, rebooted and reinstalled and even then it still has the same symptoms, even though I haven't added any add-ons or extensions. I've run malware scans and disk cleanup with no improvement. I can browse normally with IE or Chrome and they show none of these symptoms, but I prefer Firefox. Please help me determine what suddenly changed on July 20th or 21st, 2019. I've used Firefox for years and never had a problem like this, and no amount of refreshing/reinstalling/rebooting/disabling add-ons or extensions seems to have any effect. If it comes down to a complete format/reinstall of Windows, I'll likely just use a different browser but I'd really like to get Firefox working again.

HI- Recently lots of my fonts have started displaying as question marks on certain sites (such as the autofill on Google). If I uncheck the box in prefs that allows websites to use their own fonts, it's fine. But then the sites look nasty. I've reinstalled Firefox 69.0.2 but its no better. It's a work Apple mac so I can't access all the settings but the issue is only on Firefox. Please don't make me use Chrome! Thanks

I was using Linkedin with no problems on Firefox until about a month ago when I stopped being able to even load the site (it keeps spinning when i try to go to it) . I have installed a newer version of Firefox on my mac today (firefox 69.0.3) but it seems the profile info from a previous version was transferred as i had all my history preserved. I am still facing the same issue with linkedin. when i clear cookies and site data (for the site specifically or everything) or when i clear history from 'library' button the site loads but when i sign in it keeps spinning and doesn't work. I have also tried deleting cookies.sqlite files in the profiles folder to no avail. I also have ipv6 disabled as it was recommended to me for a similar issue with different sites in the past.
Any advice on this?
FF Freezes for no apparent reason.

I get into the router, set a short password and log out. As I log out I see the password box change to be completely full with well over 20 letters and numbers. I go to 'saved passwords' and try to use the password FFox has set but the router doesn't recognise it. How do I stop FFox overriding me?

Firefox crashed and since then has attempted to open the same tabs I had open at the time each time it starts, even after a restart of the computer. There was a solution to my question from several years ago: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/950535 but it appears to need an update as the files mentioned are no longer to be found.
The version of Firefox that I'm running is 69.0.3 which is the current version as of today.
The previous answer mentioned that I should first go to: Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder (This now appears to be Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Folder: Open Folder, but that's fine).
Next I should: "Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.....Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them)." However there were no files by the name of sessionstore.js or sessionstore-##.js.
How should I proceed with the current version of Firefox?

I have 2 pc's and it happens on both.
Then Today, I got a new laptop, and I get the same thing. I click on the captcha button, and it goes to a check mark. But the other browsers send me to a check list to fill out. On firefox, I get aq check when I click on the captcha, THEN The captcha expires before I get signed on. I can sign on with microsoft's browser, and chrome. I have cleared the catch, etc.
On my new laptop, the same thing happens and since his was the first time to sign on at kellogg's, there was nothing saved.

Hello,
When I tried to manually delete lot of entries (>2000) from browsing history (sidebar->search->select all->R.click->delete) Firefox used all of my memory and CPU for more than 10 minutes. As a result there where lot of writings to swap file and my PC was freeze until I was able to terminate Firefox.
I tried to reproduce the behavior with smaller set and the same happen on all tries. As an example I selected ~300 pages in history sidebar and delete them. The memory usage (for the process that used the most) went from 250MB to 800MB and CPU usage to 100% for ~2.5 minutes. During this time Firefox was almost unusable and the PC very slow.
All tests, including the initial problem, performed as first task after Firefox complete its load and without any network/web traffic by me.
I don't have the fastest PC or lot of GB of memory, but what I have should be far from enough in order to delete some entries with any additional "re-configuration" on the back, without "melt" it. CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo 2.66GHz MEM: 4GB OS: Windows 7 (64 bit) Firefox: 69.0.3 (64-bit)

Hello, I am connected to a public wifi network. It is free and it is not password protected. It does not ask for credentials. Sometimes the above mentioned banner is displayed on top, then it suddenly disappears. It is useless but it could be something happening on the network. The wifi network has issues, it seems to drop some users according to particular devices, like for examples my Asus S300CA laptop. The wifi stays apparently connected but data are interrupted. My question is about what happens at low level communication with gateway and routers when the captive-portal-like banner is shown in the browser. And I would like to understand whether it could be the cause of the disconnection on certain devices, or it can be displayed on consequence of something. Than you

Whenever I open a second tab in Firefox it's all in symbols and question marks
So I am using windows 8.1 and Firefox 69.0.3, whenever I open a second tab it's in symbols, as if the browser has the wrong encoding.
Any ideas?
