Hello fellow Firefox users, I sadly cannot use my Firefox (120.0.1, 64 bits, Windows 10) anymore as it is too slow to show a webpage... It's so slow, that I initially thought that I have no internet connexion at all on Firefox.

Can anyone help me figuring why my Firefox profile is so slow ?

Long story short:

- Until 2023-12-05, my Firefox was working normally.

 My parameters were "No HTTPS everywhere" and "No DNS over HTTPS (DoH)".

- On 2023-12-05, I was connected to an entreprise DNS (Mangling DNS).

 I cannot acces some website because of their local policy, so I changed my DNS parameters.
 I choose to use DoH with Cloudflare instead of the given DNS.
 Internet worked perfectly.

- On 2023-12-06 and 2023-12-07, same parameters, Internet worked perfectly on another network. - Since 2023-12-08, Internet is very slow. It need about 1.5 minute to get start.duckduckgo.com loading on any network.

 I thought it will not load at all (timeout ?).
 Others webrowsers (e.g. : Microsoft Edge) are correctly working.
 The "ping google.com" command is working normaly on windows with 2ms delay.
 The DNS on windows "Get-DnsClientServerAddress" are the normal DNS of the router.
 Even with reverting the DoH parameter to off, I do not get back my web browsing speed.

Troubleshooting :

- It's slow with "DoH and Cloudflare" activated.

 It's slow on my home network.
 It's slow on a public network.
 It's slow on another private network.
 https://www.dnsleaktest.com gives me a list of Cloudflare DNS (IPv4) near me, different from the DNS (IPv6) used by Windows 10.
 Meanwhile, Microsoft Edge, ping and wget/curl are working normally (i.e. no delay).
 Noticably, Microsfot Edge use by default according to https://www.dnsleaktest.com the same Cloudflare DNS.

- It's slow with "DoH and Cloudflare" NOT activated.

 It's slow on my home network.
 It's slow on a public network.
 It's slow on another private network.
 https://www.dnsleaktest.com gives me one DNS from my ISP (IPv4), same value as the DNS (IPv4) used by Windows 10.
 Meanwhile, Microsoft Edge, ping and wget/curl are working normally (i.e. no delay).
 Noticably, Microsfot Edge use by default according to https://www.dnsleaktest.com the Cloudflare DNS.

- In about:crashes there is not relevent crash (only old crash).

- I have not changed any about:config parameters in the 2023-12-05 to today (2023-12-12) period.

- I have run mozregression GUI with no problem.

 The program oppened succesfully start.duckduckgo.com .
 This website was choosen as it is an allowed website on every DNS.

- Firefox 120.0.1 is saying that it is up-to-date.

 And as of today, it is.

- I do have some extensions (12 activated) on my Firefox, so I try without extension.

 It worked but I do not understand why!
 * New profile. Using "firefox.exe -profile" I created another clean profile to see.
                It worked.
                According to https://www.dnsleaktest.com, my new empty profile uses both Cloudflare DNS (IPv4) and the router DNS from the ISP.
                Adding one-by-one most of extensions (6 now) to this new profile do not break yet my Firefox speed.
 * Safe Mode. Using "firefox.exe -safe-mode" I have started my corrupt profile without extension, JIT, etc...
              It worked.
              According to https://www.dnsleaktest.com, it uses only the router DNS (IPv4).

- I can send some result from about:support if needed, but it kills privacy...

Conclusion :

I do not understand why my main Firefox profile is not working correctly. I do not see strange things when troubleshooting. Nothing makes sense.

May someone help me figuring out?

I get phone notifications that a streamer is live but when I go to their page on Twitch on my laptop, I see them as offline (screen shot).

I've tried clearing cache and cookies and do not currently have any pluggins that affect Twitch.

I have two monitors, and I usually keep a stream/youtube video open on the second monitor while I browse the internet/play games. I used to do this all the time in OperaGX, but I recently changed to Firefox, and I've noticed that after about 10 minutes, the video or stream stops playing, and I have to manually pause and unpause the stream to get it running again. I have checked online, and I found a fix related to the about:config setting "network.http.throttle.enable" as "false" and the "network.http.throttle.version" as "1", but my firefox already had these settings like this.

they disappeared one day and have not returned. Finally uninstalled fir fox and nothing came back the new homepage and bookmark arrangement is inadequate. How do I get the old one back?

Despiote having no problems for years this morning my access to making payments online with the Bank of Scotland was blocked. They have indicated that the problem is Firefiox not aligning with their security. can you fix this as i would prefer t remain with firefox.

Recently Twitch and WarGaming, as well as other advertisers, collaborated on "Twitch drops" Somehow, Twitch is able to determine which tab is on top and being viewed by visitors to the website. It's one thing for Twitch to know I'm visiting the website, and quite another for them to determine if in fact the tab I have open is front and center. Seems to me this is a privacy issue that needs to be addressed.? (I have not yet determined if this Twitch snooping is working in private tabs yet, but I soon will)

I am suddenly getting the following error message: "We recommend you use a different browser or disable the “EasyList Cookie” filter from your “Content Filtering” settings (found under “Settings” -> “Shields” in the Brave Browser)." Firefox is now unusable. I have searched "Settings" and can find nothing about "Content Filtering," "Shields," or "Brave Browser." Can you tell me what is going on here?

I am in the habit of generating related tabs across several windows. Say, 5 windows and there might be 13 tabs that I want to organize onto one, new, window. How can I do this?

Until the most recent update, which came along with a Microsoft update, I was able to stream Peacock.com but now I'm getting an error message that my system configuration isn't compatible with Peacock. I have also had issues with YouTube, which keeps telling me that I have to disable adblockers - which I'm not running. I had another unrelated problem that I fixed by doing a system restore to before the Microsoft update, so there should be no issues with that end of things. It has to be Firefox because I can still stream Peacock on Microsoft Edge.

So, does ANYONE have any idea how I can fix this problem? I much prefer using Firefox to Edge and I don't use Chrome.

Thanks.

I followed the instructions at [[Unload inactive tabs to save system memory in Firefox|https://mzl.la/3AdRbLx]] but I still occasionally see the tab refresh when I select it. I start with a search on Bing, click an article to open a tab, follow links from there, back to the first tab and select another. I repeat this until there are several tabs open. Sometimes the page refreshes when I switch back to one that I previously reviewed. Is that controlled by the option browser.tabs.unloadOnLowMemory? if so, it doesn't appear to be working. [Edit] - The last time this happened I checked my system and found 10gig used of 64gig installed. I'm using the most current version of FF 120.0.1 on Windows 11 Pro v 22H2.

I use photopea.com for photo editing and stuff, but I accidentally clicked on the option to have that site not show a pop-up asking if I'm sure I want to leave the site and asking if I'm sure I want to close a project. Now I can't close projects at all.

Can someone tell me how I can re-enable it for the website?

My Firefox browser keeps autofilling username on one important website and it is preventing me from accessing that website. Website indicates that this username is not valid. How can I stop this?

As soon as i start my computor with firefox i get this message: Warning you have virus. You must install re-captha-version-3-49.top. What is that? I have norton and norton says no virus. What shall i do?

As i said I want to disable the crtl + W shortcut but i cant find a way to do it. This shortcut makes my day a lot harder cos i sometimes press it by accident. It's annoying. Please help m e unbind/delete it :)
