DDE is a Windows interprocess communication technology that is useful to automate things such as getting the url from Firefox etc. It seems that DDE is being progressively disabled since Firefox Quantum. On FF 57 I can no longer grab the url, on Firefox 70 I can no longer copy text.. Is Mozilla doing this on purpose and is there a way to re-enable DDE?

After a recent automatic update my old problem with Firefox Quantum came back. Every time I open Firefox browser I get multiple 4-6 firefox.exe running in the background processes. When I go into details and try to end process tree it crashes my browser. When I open Firefox it starts all over again. I have gone into about:preferences and
De-select ‘Use recommended performance settings’ Set Content process limit value to ‘1’ from its default value
I have also gone into about:config and switched browser.tabs.remote.autostart to false. Still have the same problem.
Why does Sync prompt me to install "on another device" when this is the fourth or fifth active device I've logged into the account with?

Over the past few days, I've logged into Firefox on a few new devices - mainly, a Windows partition on my computer, and on a school computer.
In both instances, after logging in, it doesn't give me any indication of being finished - instead it prompts me to "install on another device". Most recently, on this computer, it asked me to send an SMS to my phone to login to Firefox Sync on my phone.
This would be reasonable, except for the fact that I'm already using Firefox on my phone, and have it actively logged in with the account I'm logging in to. When I go to look at my devices on accounts.firefox.com, I have 6 devices listed, including my phone "last seen 7 hours ago" and my main computer "last seen 3 hours ago". It's clear to me that these are active devices, and that I don't need to install on any other devices to get sync working.
The main reason this is annoying is that I don't get any confirmation that I've completed logging in - only a prompt to do something unnecessary. I can work around this by simply ignoring the prompt, but I'm concerned for other less tech-savvy consumers who might be confused, thinking they're still not done when they login to Sync on their second device! Imagine someone logs into their phone first, and then the computer - it'd be pretty confusing to then have the computer ask them to sign in on the phone.
I personally was slightly confused, and had to double check that bookmarks were actually syncing and that I hadn't accidentally made a new account or done something to erase my previously logged-in devices...

Check boxes and more cannot be seen in Firefox. I am attaching screenshots from Chrome and Firefox of the same gmail page. On the Chrome shot you see all the boxes and options. On the Firefox screenshot the boxes are not there. You can hover over where they should be and click but that isn't right. I'm using gmail as an example but it's on all other websites too. I would use Firefox as my default browser if it wasn't for this issue.
Never mind . Can't attach the screen shots because they are pdf files.
But here is a similar question that someone else posted and I have tried all the "solutions" posted to it:
"My user cannot check boxes on a certain part of one page. tried everything. Any ideas? It works on other browser.
