Hi,
since the update to FF 53.0 (and now also with 53.0.2) I've had it freeze on me 5 times and every time it also completely locked up my PC - mouse was frozen, Ctrl+Alt+Del didn't work, gave it 10 minutes but was still frozen afterwards - and I had to shut my PC down forcefully.
My system: FF 53.0.2 (32 bit) Win 7 (64 bit) 16gb RAM FF Addons: NoScript & AdBlock Plus
No changes in terms of add ons, no Windows updates or new programs that could have caused this. The only programs running in the background are/were my anti-virus/anti-malware programs, Skype, Outlook, Rainmeter and my mouse driver (all of which I've used for at least the last 6 months). The first two times it happened when I tried to restore tabs from the "oops, that shouldn't have happened" page and the last 3 times when I opened a new tab (with 1-2 other tabs open at max, usually only an empty one!). The 3rd time was 2 weeks ago, the 4th time on May 9th when I opened a new tab after clicking on one of my tiles on the "new tab" page (no other tabs were open at the same time!). Today it happened again! I installed a bunch of Windows updates a couple of days ago and this time I had Minecraft loading up and was watching a movie (DVD) in VLC (no Outlook running this time) but when I opened a second tab in FF, the picture froze again. The weird part is that the sound of the movie kept playing but it didn't let me move the mouse or open the Task Manager. I've never had a video run at the time of the freeze, so I don't know if Windows would have still kept playing the sound the other times.
I can play really hardware-intensive games that use 50+% of my cpu (not that there are a lot that do) and a lot of my gpu's power/VRAM and/or RAM (sometimes goes as high as overall 13gb/16gb) but I've never had any freezes just with games + watching a video at the same time, it always happens while opening a website through one of the tiles or a new tab directly in FF 53.x!

Why no sound when using Firefox; sound when using other browsers?

Recently, I have no sound when trying to view any type of video on one of my PC's using Firefox. Not a problem on a second PC using Firefox. On the problem PC, when I open the sound mixer icon, I see the Firefox icon is showing sound being received (i.e., a green vertical pulsating line). But, the speaker icon shows nothing in the vertical bar.
I have no sound problems using either Internet Explorer or Chrome. I also have no problem listening to music already installed on the PC. I've tried one of the You Tube video solutions without success (e.g., running services.msc; going to windows audio and turning it off and then on.) I've found another suggested solution which involves a number of steps starting with regedit and ending with a deletion of the firefox.exe number key. I did not try that one since most of the respondents said it didn't work for them.
Hopefully, someone has a solution. Thanks for any suggestions you might have.
After refreshing Firefox buttons and boxes don't show on websites
Button for eg NEXT on crossword solver website does not show. I can locate it and move on, but I would like to cut out the guesswork.

I know it has stored multiple logins for various sites but for dropbox, when I log in with the alternate credentials, I don't get the 'save password' dropdown and when I check passwords only my original password is there. ????

Why can I no longer access Firefox via email links after the 54.0 update. Clicking on a link now only takes me to a blank page that locks up.

When ever I click on a link in Eudora I am taken to a blank page on Firefox. The status indicator icon then continues to spin and the page seems to be locked up. If I enter a url to attempt to go to another page, nothing happens. If I open another tab an attempt to access another page, the results are the same. If I close all pages and then reboot Firefox it will go back to working as normal. This occurs every time I click on a link in my offline email client and it started happening after the Firefox v54.0 update.

My Firefox (64-bit) installation has been reverting back to version 52.0 after a a system/browser restart for a while now.
When I relaunch Firefox it begins the process of updating itself to whatever the laters version is and this happens every time I launch it.
I switched to Developer Edition for a while (though had to stop because most of my plugins broke) and managed to avoid the issue so I presume the problem lies with my regular Firefox profile rather than the installation itself.
The problem here is that I did everything I could think of to completely wipe my profile from the system but the problem remains when I attempt a completely clean install of Firefox.
Does anyone have any idea why even after clean install and an attempt to delete all my profiles Firefox keeps thinking it is on version 52.0 but Developer Edition doesn't?
I have tested this on completely clean (I assumed) profiles without any plugins added and the problem remained.

Where are the boxes in front of each email on the webmail page? The "select All" option is still here which implies a box to be checked for action. I have no way of removing an email from the webmail list except by going to Internet Explorer. Removing an email from the webmail list allows me to delete an email that I do not want in my PC.

Whether I click the star in the context menu or use Ctrl-D shortcut I have the following problem: the menu where you can choose a different name or folder for the bookmark that normally pops up won't pop up. It does work in Safe Mode though. But the thing is that I'm unable to determine the cause of the problem. I have turned off hardware acceleration, switched to the default theme, disabled all extensions (restarted of course) but the problem still persists. Any idea what else I could try?

Firefox hangs at random times i.e. whenever my application sends ajax request it freezes for few milliseconds till response comes back as a result no click event triggers (one should keep clicking on), we poll every 3 seconds so it's very difficult for us to use FF anymore!!!
Same application runs superb in Chrome browser without any issues.
Our application uses ExtJS 4.2 Javascript framework.

My Bookmarks list has at least 10 copies of my bookmarks. I am pretty sure that each copy is not exactly the same. I want to reduce the list to one set of bookmarks and not lose anything. BTW, I find the Bookmarks categories very confusing.
Also, how did this happen? I want to make sure I don't do it again.
