I have Windows 11 on my computer, it is up to date, and I have downloaded Firefox several times and yet it keeps telling me it has a problem, shuts down and restarts . I have lost many downloads and emails because of it. I just made an e mail and just before I finished it to send, it told me there was a problem, it needed to restart and the email was lost. The same is with Windows 11. I have downloaded it many times, saved pages , news etc. and when I open the document or item, it tells me that I need to update my browser It is not my computer. I have even at times done Recovery and eventually have the same problem app

Hi, tbird 128.3.0 esr 64b w11p. A prob new to me. Only for MS outlook mail (aka office365 email, but no ofc365 on my laptop, just the email in tbird). -in unified folder view, my MS mail acct (it still has the "hotmail.com" address, but works), is not present -- that's the problem. A workaround is that I can choose both "unified" and "all" views together -- but while the MS mail acct now appears in the folder pane at the top, as well as in its own "place" at the "accounts" area below, that MS mail acct not longer has its messages appearing in the "message list" pane. I have to go to MS Mail's own place below, in the folder pane (as stated above),to see its msgs. in msg pane.

 I could use the "all" view, but it's not as nice & I never have had to choose that before this prob.

- I did run "repair folder" for MS mail's own inbox (again, below, in its own place below, in folder pane, accts). And I restarted t-bird.No change in behavior, unified view does NOT list my hotmail emails.

I have used & am comfortable w/config ed, but only when I have the proper instructions you may post in your potential reply (I am not a coder).

Please advise, thank you.

A couple of weeks ago my Firefox desktop suddenly stopped loading images correctly. This is especially true for image-heavy websites like Tumblr. Images will either not load or only partially load. It takes several refreshes to get even 75% of images to load properly (including Shift+Ctrl+R). My Internet connection and speed are normal. Weirdly, other browsers loaded images fine at first, but now they're laggy, too? They still work better in comparison, though. And the Internet on my iPhone and iPad are perfectly fine.

I've tried all of these multiple times: Restarting my PC, Internet, and router. Disabling certain extensions (especially those for Tumblr and ad blockers). Restarting in Troubleshoot Mode without extensions. Reducing number of tabs.

I tried the different Profile trick I found Googling this issue to death, and it works, but I want to fix my default profile's issues if I can. Oh, and YouTube is insufferable to watch and crashes the browser, but I suspect that might have to do more with what YouTube's trying to do with ad blockers. Especially since Chrome isn't much better on that count (aside from the crashing).

Edit: This issue started occurring around the time I downloaded the last Firefox update before the latest one. I thought installing the latest one might solve the problem, but it didn't. This might just be a coincidence.

HI, I have TBird 102.15.1 64Bit installed on several different PCs and laptops. On my main Laptop I checked the Roaming\Thunderbird folder properties and found the following: Size on Disk: 35.8 GB Contains 253,172 files and 1,533 Folders. Is their anyway I can reduce the size? My TBird seems to be running slowly and occasionally stalls. I do not want to switch back to Outlook client program, I am not a Microsoft supporter. I do know I could move mail to local folders but would that mean I could only access them from one machine? Thanks.

I have followed various instructions I found (such as stopping all add-ons etc, starting firefox in safe mode etc etc), but still no joy.

When I click on a link in an email (outlook although not relevant I dont think), Firefox opens a new instance, starts in first tab with my default home page and then .... nothing. If I copy the selected hyperlink and put it in the search bar it works fine. More importantly, if I change *all* my defaults to say Chrome and try, it works fine.

Any suggestions on what I am missing from the various solutions? (Been happening for ages - maybe a year or more I think).

For months I've been living with an ongoing problem; when I watch some YouTube videos, the entire window will go black while the audio continues. I searched for solutions, which usually suggested the I turn off ad-blocking (which I don't recall turning on) and I was offered instructions to go to "OPTIONS" which doesn't exist on my version of FireFox, and no HELP articles offered a better solution. It seems that lots of people have this problem but MOZILLA ignores it or CANNOT fix it.

But I found a FIX. I no longer have this problem with YouTube. YouTube is a GOOGLE product, so I installed the CHROME browser. I think my FireFox related YouTube problems are now a thing of the past.

I would URGE MOZILLA to recognize the RUMBLE.com app and develope RUMBLE optimization tools similar to those that Mozilla developed for YouTube. RUMBLE is the free-speed answer to YouTube and is NOT owned by GOOGLE. It would be a no-brainer for MOZILLA to strongly support RUMBLE, but they act as though they've never heard of it. WAKE UP, HIPPIES!

First noticed the issue on 10/03 where while watching some streams on twitcth, I noticed that audio would play smoothly but the video feed was stuttering every other second. Have gone through and made several changes to the about:config section, some of those changes include.

layers.acceleration.force-enabled media.hardware-video-decoding.force-enabled network.http.throttle.version media.suspend-bkgnd-video.enabled

Also checked the stream stats for twitch while watching and compared them to what happens when watching the same stream on chrome and noticed that in Firefox, the FPS counter would completely disappear and my skipped frames would increase by the several thousands.

When compared to Chrome, which has been actively playing the stream for nearly 2 hours plus, my skipped frames has not jumped anywhere near the levels Firefox has.

Changing the latency mode does nothing, stream quality doesnt make a difference. The only way to stop the stuttering is to refresh the page or stream, but this issue occurs every 5-10 minutes when prior to 10/03 issue never occured.

From what I can tell the issue also occurs on Youtube. Issue also gets worse if I were to click onto another Firefox window/tab.

Note: the ss with the massive amount of skipped frames is Firefox, and the other is Chrome.

Note2: Troubelshoot mode didnt help either as after letting it sit longer the same problem would occur
