Is there a way to restore a window using less RAM, or if applicable, with regular garbage collection during the process?

While restoring a previously closed window, significantly more RAM is used than when reopening a session, for the same amount of tabs. So if the window ever gets closed and that state saved, I need to revert to a previous session backup. Attempting to restore the window caused ram usage to go up to 30 gigabytes and beyond, at which point I stopped the process out of caution. In contrast reopening the browser with the tabs normally is only about 5 gigabytes.

I regularly use Firefox with thousands of tabs open. This is usually not an issue but in some cases leads to performance issues like these.

For example, when I open a YouTube video on fullscreen, go to the desktop by pressing Win + D, and return to Firefox by pressing Win + D, the video is no longer on fullscreen, but my tabs and taskbar are invisible. It happens on every site with fullscreen, regardless of whether I watch video or play a web game.

I already tried to go into troubleshooting mode, but it did nothing. I also tried to remove fullscreen animation, but nothing again.

How to fix this bug?

This happens every time I restart Firefox. After "Close all windows" with 4 windows, session restore only restores 3. It seems to be the last window that was opened using "open new window". Off by one error? The tabs that were recently closed in that window aren't in the Recently Closed Tabs either. They do appear in "Show All History".

When I'm using the kayosports.com.au video streaming service website on Firefox (version: 110.0.1) the right arrow button to navigate the media content shelf rows does not register when clicked with the mouse. Previously I was using version 109 of Firefox and the same bug was happening with that version as well.

When using the kayosports.com.au website on other Web Browsers like Brave the right arrow button responses just fine when clicked with the mouse.

I'm using Windows 10 21H2 on Desktop

Hey guys!

    I'm running Win 10pro, Microsoft Office Pro Plus 2021 and Firefox X64.  I set Firefox as the default browser, but for some reason that setting isn't "sticking."  If Edge is installed, I can't find it.  Believe me, I tried, because I wanted to uninstall it if possible.

I'm still getting used to the new Outlook (I won't tell you what version I WAS using...) but this is throwing me for a loop...

If I do not have Firefox open: When I open a link in Outlook, a new window is opened in Firefox. This window does not include any toolbars nor are any of my customizations applied (themes, extensions) As a matter of fact, opening the link in this new bare-bones window disables all my extensions and if I want my theme back, I have to remove it from my theme manager and reinstall it, because the option to enable/disable the theme isn't there.

If I DO have Firefox open: When I open a link in Outlook, I get "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. The old Firefox process must be closed to open a new window." If I close Firefox, I'll get that same bare-bones window and all my extensions and themes are disabled.

Has anyone seen anything like this before and can you help?

Thanks a bunch....

For some reason all my saved passwords disappeared. I've tried saving them each time the pop up asks if I'd like to save them. I've read every article. Followed all directions. Nothing works. Help please.

Sometimes clicking on a link will work, sometimes not. Sometimes, in yahoo finance sometimes I can enlarge a graph to full page size, sometimes not. The issue is not with my computer or the website because I have no problems with Chrome (other than an aversion to their "privacy" policies). I don't like Microsoft Edge because of the constant invitations to buy microsoft products.

Windows 10, firefox v 111.0.1. 64 bit. The problem got worse a few weeks ago.

After the most recent (or possibly the one before) Firefox update, when I am streaming radio via a radio player website, the stream keeps switching itself off after 10 minutes regardless of other activity on the machine.

Apparently, this was reported a while ago (ca. 2020) but has only affected my experience per the above updates.

Windows 10, latest Firefox version, e.g., url: https://siradio.si/val202/ but same behaviour with others sites.

I have KODI/Linux as my means to Watch TV & Movies.

I also like to watch AFL Football, Live Streamed using Kayo Subscription on Firefox.

When watching AFL Football Video Streaming, I encounter a Serious Video Buffering Problem, whereby the Video constantly stops, but the Audio continues. I do not Stream other Videos.

I have read an article that states that Bitrate can be adjusted to improve this annoying condition, but I cannot find a Setting for this in my Firefox or other Browsers.

Can an Expert on Live Streaming pass Comment on this Problem and how it can be corrected at the Customers End. Thank you.

For the last two days, I have been unable to properly open AOL on my laptop using my default browser, Firefox. No ability to read email and the whole presentation was drastically different and unusable. I can open AOL just fine on my IPhone through the AOL app or by just checking mail. I called tech support at AOL and they directed me to use a different browser. I switched to Google Chrome and could see the normal AOL in both the classic and new format. I hope that you figure out what the interface problem is as I prefer Firefox's privacy and other policies. But I can't use it on my laptop unless you solve the problem. Just sayin'.

Your browser is being managed by your organization. Why am i seeing this and how do I remove how do i stop it from showing up and wwhy is it showing up ? What organization is it and why?

?

I'm no longer able to share multiple documents through Dotloop. For years if you click mutliple files a new button pops up that says share and allows you to send all that has been checked, as of today I can say that no longer happens. I tried in Edge and it still works fine. See attached images, one from Firefox the other Edge

I have trouble logging into Yahoo email using Firefox, since the last update. It gives error message that site cannot be reached. I can go into settings, Privacy and clear data and then it logs in just fine, but to do this EVERY time I try to log in is a real PITA. Does not happen on other browsers.

Trying to create new "list" in my Twitter account. First click in the Twitter procedure brings up a Firefox box <Continue to Firefox accounts>. How can I get rid of this and continue with the Twitter procedure? Thanks in advance.

I am not sure how to describe this problem I am having with Firefox, e.g., when I tap Ebay icon it goes to Ebay BUT only in Spanish? Will not allow me to do anything but view everything in Spanish? This just happened several days ago and I am suspicious that I have been hacked? This only happens as far as I can tell with Ebay? Now add this to equation, happens with Google browser also? However, it does not happen with Microsoft Edge, with ME I can get to Ebay in english?

I don't know how to fix this, one more thing, even when I do a search on web for Ebay I only get the search for Ebay in Spanish - in other words I cannot get to Ebay english? Tell me what is wrong here?

Hail all:

I use Privacy Mode (to prevent idiotic dump on my PC from many a website, I hate clutter, due to my severe Asperger's) on my Secondary Monitor, whilst my primary Firefox runs normal mode on my Primary Monitor.

Each time I open a new Privacy Mode, it opens on the Primary Monitor, so I need to drag it to the secondary one.

Could we get an option to open the Privacy Mode one on "Detected Monitor X" (which stands for any option that got detected as monitor)? Would be lovely if we could.

Thank you.

Is there a way to stop this tab (https://www.bing.com/new#examples) opening when I open up Firefox? I believe it is to do with when an update occurs. I don't use Bing, never have and never will, it's frustrating. I have disabled all settings related to Bing that I can find in the settings. Am I missing something? I just want to start where I left off, not be bombarded with Bing at every turn (Microsoft takes care of that for me)

I recently moved into my partners parents house temporarily and their ISP set up is less than ideal but usable. Since moving in we've had a few hiccups with the internet and initially narrowed it down to google searches.

The graphs below are my internet activity with a couple tabs open and a stream to just get a consistent graph for pre-googling and then post-googling, the connection hitching continues until i close and reopen firefox which obviously is inconvenient. (I've been making do with bing in the meantime and it is really beyond parody how bad it actually really is.)

On a whim today I tried googling something in chrome to see if it'd do the same thing and it doesn't, which is great because this went from just a bizarre isp issue to a potential bug which can hopefully be fixed.
