freezing firefox on windows 10 home, latest version
To whom it may concern, Over the past month, when I open more than 5or6 tabs, my browser getting slow, and by a few more, it just gets freezes sometimes. It wasn't like that, and I used to do it during my academic researches. I have a good network and high configuration laptop (CPU core i7 11th, 16gig RAM, 1tr SSD, Geforce RTX 3060 Graphic card)
I'd appreciate it if you help me with it or consider it to solve it anyway, by a new or update or something like that.
Thank you very much in advance Vahid Askari Kashan

hello vahid,
i am not sure what is the issue causing the dysfunction.
have you tested the issue on another browser, as well?
something that you might look into is cycling the hardware acceleration feature under the Firefox options. I think you have a few options available in that section that you can also tweak.
I still have this problem only with Firefox Mozilla not any other browsers...
Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support to see if that has effect.

You can create a new profile as a quick test to see if your current profile is causing the problem.
See "Creating a profile":
If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.
