Firefox Support Forum

My keyboard regularly locks up using Firefox. I tracked the problem down to having upwards of 40 Firefox processes running in Task Manager. Disabling them or restarting Firefox only works for a few hours before the problem recurs.

Several people here recommend disabling "Use recommended performance settings," which should give me the option of selecting the max number of processes to be running.

However, when I disable the recommended performance setting, the hardware acceleration option appears, but not the process number selection. I'm finding no way to set the max number of processes.

I'm hoping for a work-around to that, or a different solution.

Thanks.

BTW, I also notice excessive processes running when I use Chrome. I'm concerned why this is happening on both my browsers.

The "shield" icon for turning off tracking protection cannot be turned off completely. It seems you have to do this for every single website. This feature (curse) makes almost all websites non-functional. How do I turn this off completely? If I cannot eliminate this I will change to another browser.

Since the latest update, Firefox won't display Google maps anymore. There was a message saying Windows blocked access to the graphics. Can't figure out where in Windows 10 to undo this. Help! Firefox useless to me without Google maps.

After signing up for an account I am getting bombarded by emails from Mozilla. I follow the links for "unsubscribe" and "manage your communication preferences" within each email, as well as going through "Manage Account" from the Firefox browser. All paths lead to: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/newsletter/existing/ Which says: Something is amiss with our system, sorry! Please try again later. This has been the case now for over a week, so I assume it's not the system. I have tried multiple browsers, I always get the same message.

At one time there was a userchrome patch which could be applied to obtain legacy-style square corners on the URL bar and the search bar. I can not get this to work despite trying several different suggestions and I suspect it may be related the the Proton redesign.

Can anyone suggest a userchrome mod to obtain the desired square corners?

When Firefox automatically updated to 109.1 tonight, I lost all my saved passwords and bookmarks. The bookmarks aren't in a file under 'Restore' in 'Manage Bookmarks' (but I had saved them so I got most of them back). But I can't get my passwords. What happened?

my bank says that the latest firefox is blocking my access. it works ok with other browsers and used to work with firefox. do i change banks or change browsers? is firefox going to "fix" this?

The new Mozilla Firefox (version 110.0) does not run after update on my system. After run it shows the window, but this window doesn't respond. The clean installation (of course with profile folder erase) doesn't fix the problem. I have tried both x64 and x86 versions.

The previous version installation (109.0.1) works fine.

There are some screenshots included. I use Windows 7 on Ryzen 7 2700X processor. Could you please advice, what can be done here?

I clicked the "Refresh Firefox" button this morning and now all of the passwords on my desktop browser are gone. They are still available in the mobile browser. What happened? How do I get them back. Using SYNC did nothing.

why, You are not saving all the log in and passwords lately. There are many that are missing in the list of save passwords. 2. Can you fix the slowness in my site and the Firefox Crashes? Thanks Teresa Scanlan-- [email removed from public]

Using MitID for eBoks results in an error. Using MitID for the bank goes fine.

FF 109.0.1 does NOT have that problem!

This problem is, most likely, seen in Denmark only, as MitID is a Danish security access.
