For the past few weeks Firefox has been crashing and freezing often. Crashes are worst when trying to access Protonmail, which almost always crashes the tab instantly. Freezes happen most often when browsing Reddit, and also when watching Youtube, but crashes and freezes can happen on almost any website.

I have tried changing profiles, refreshing and uninstalling/reinstalling, but the problem persists and seems to be getting worse over time.

Here are some recent crash reports:

Will be grateful if someone can help me get to the bottom of this Thanks

I tried all common troubleshooting steps: deleting cache reinstalling different settings turning off adblocker/vpn disabled efficiency in task manager and set it permanently to off in FF

I used to have 1000+ tabs in 2016 no issue. I had problem in past with Firefox using 100% CPU which now it is not using only like 50, but memory is getting full 89% i use also large page file on ssd. Problem is even when i restart firefox it is slow with low RAM usage! SO that's not it! Even 5 tabs sometimes it is slow!

It is so damn slow it drives me crazy! I tried also Quantum in past when Firefox has 100% CPU usage bug and it was only tiny bit better but still caused 100% CPU usage!

All other browsers are anti user cannot even stop Autoplay literal terrorist Firefox is only normal browser unfortunately performance compare to 2016 got absolutely abysmal! I had this problem even in-between reinstals of OS so it doesn't seem it is me. I play demanding games no issues on my PC...

I had 128.7 esr installed and was getting crashes and upgraded to 128.8 esr and it was worse. Down graded to 128.0 esr and it seems to be working just fine so I will not be doing any further upgrades.

I am trying to access iDRAC 7 on a Dell Poweredge R520. On version 133.0.3 I get a An error occurred during a connection to 192.168.1.20. PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR. I know that the problem is that Firefox stop supporting older versions of TLS. So I choose to also install an older version of Firefox (43.0). On that version I get a The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified error. I used to have no problems accessing iDRAC 7. Has anyone else been able to resolve this problem?

Hello !

I recently got a new laptop (Lenovo Legion 5 I think) and while it's been working great, I've noticed a glitch that's happened a few times now. It's usually preceded by the image having some weird line pattern, I haven't been able to take a picture of it but it's almost like the pixels have been shifted ever so slightly. After that the screen sometimes splits strangely (see image). I don't know if this is a hardware problem or a Firefox thing but the only time it has happened was when I was on Firefox so yeah...

Despite being listed as supported on: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/MediaDevices/enumerateDevices

enumerateDevices() still only returns input devices. Running navigator.mediaDevices.enumerateDevices().then(devices => console.log(devices)); in the Firefox console only shows input devices while on Chrome it shows output devices.

I use a website that supports playing from multiple output devices so when receiving a phone call, your desktop speakers and your headset can ring at the same time. This works in Chrome but it doesn't in Firefox.

Today Firefox crashed twice and a Tab crashed once! What's going on with Firefox? It's especially disurbing to have it crash during a long video and then you have to find where you left off.

Firefox Nightly (next generation web browser test) has no animation delay when playing sprunki, but there is a bug in the beta and current versions that become delay. (That's why I use other browsers.) There is no delay in other browsers. I hope it will be fixed.

For the last day I've been having a problem with FF slow to load. I've tried the troubleshoot mode with little change. When it does load I can have problems with certain web sites loading e.g. Youtube, MSNBC, AOL mail etc. It's never consistent. The cache is clean and I've saved all the relevant cookies, I checked my internet provider and they are having no problems and I don't seem to be having any internal hdw issues e.g. ethernet cable connections etc. I reinstalled FF-not a clean install and seemed to help for a time. Do I have any options other than a refresh? I don't seem to be having the same issues with Edge or Chrome. All W11 updates are current. I look forward to anyone's comments.

when I start firefox, it tells me the old one is running and to close it. i hit the close button and keep getting the same message. I have uninstalled firefox and reinstalled it and keep getting the same problem.

Hello,

This new version of firefox. I am experiencing icons grey out whenever I opened a new tab. Is anyone experiencing this below?

firefox stalls on ubuntu and the OS says it is running but I cannot or don't know how to restart/reset it from the terminal. A reboot of the computer solves the issue but I have to re enter the bios password etc. Is there a simple solution?
