Firefox issue after enable multi core support


Recommended Posts

I'm using version of 49.0.1and after some tweaking got multi-core support enabled, but now I can not seem to copy/paste (randomly per site) and my add-on Clipe which allows me to store multiple items on the clipboard will not paste anything except the latest entry. I am also having issue when I search via Google (or other search engine) when I click on t he link nothing  happens, I have to right click- open in new tab in order to get it to work. These issues did not start until I enabled the multi-core support. Should I go ahead and disable it and see if the issue(s) are resolved?

You mean multi-process (aka e10s), right?

Multicore support is not enabled by default :huh::wacko:

All add ons have to be compatible. I just read yesterday that it is best not to force it in Fx 49.0.1. It will work better with Firefox's Beta fx 50 B6.

Force Enable

If you've tried enabling e10s following the instruction above, but your about:support indicates that e10s is disabled (e.g., accessibility, add-ons can trigger this), you can force e10s on for testing purposes. Within about:config create a new boolean pref named browser.tabs.remote.force-enable and set it to true. This is not encouraged, use it at your own risk!

That's... a lot of extensions. Have you tried disabling them all and seeing if the issue still exists? If the issue doesn't persist after disabling all extensions you'll know it's one of them causing it. You can then try enabling them one-by-one (restarting Firefox each time you enable an extension and retesting) and retesting for the issue until you come upon the culprit.

 

Personally, I keep both my Firefox, Chrome, Edge, Vivaldi, etc. light with the bare minimum of extensions and I never encounter browser issues like crashes and copying and pasting not working.

Only 4 of my add-ons are e10 compatible. :( Guess I'll undo what I did to force it, since it's not acting right.

That is unfortunate. I only run a few add-ons and can get by without them if need be, so e10s are a welcomed addition. I remember when e10s were first introduced into the nightly builds many moons ago, those were some buggy times until extensions started to update their code. I just periodically check that website to see if any new extensions pop up or any updates, i do have one or two that are not compatible that i would still like to use.

    • The recent iOS (and macOS) updates feel more like incremental releases than major updates. Relatively modest changes and used as an excuse for dropping support for older devices. Although it does feel like iOS 26 might be visually very different, perhaps to take media attention away from Apple Intelligence problems.
    • There is no one at home at the top and is a straight out lunatic so this is not very surprising at all. My moral would be shot rolling crap out like the cybertruck.
    • I hope this is also rolling out to the website so don't have to install the mobile app to set privacy settings. WTF?
    • Not having a native app I guess is not good. That said when I have to use Windows and I want to use AI I do not use co-pilot. Lots of AI apps work on lots of OS’es. Just install the AI app you want on iOS or MacOs. Also we are in early days. In 3 years time I suspect lots of these AI apps will be gone either by not making it or being bought up by others.
    • Gemini can now catch you up on the latest changes to your files in Google Drive by David Uzondu Google recently announced a new feature for Drive designed to help you keep track of what has changed in your files without having to dig through them manually. The feature, called "Catch me up", shares its name with a similar tool in Google Chat, which helps users quickly catch up on conversations without scrolling through long message threads. With the new feature, Gemini will now attempt to identify files in your Drive that have been altered since you last opened them, offering a summary of these changes. This aims to save you the headache of figuring out what is new or crucial. This covers edits made to Docs and also new comments left on Docs, Sheets, and Slides. Google clarifies that this summary is not exhaustive but is meant to point out potentially important updates. To use it, you can find a "Catch me up" prompt on the Google Drive Home page, and clicking it will bring up the summary in the Gemini side panel. Alternatively, for individual files, you will see an activity indicator on documents that have likely changed. You can click this indicator directly or select the file and hit a "catch me up" button in the selection toolbar to get the lowdown. The feature is currently available in English and has begun rolling out to users on both Rapid Release and Scheduled Release domains. It could take up to 15 days for everyone eligible to see it. It is coming to Google Workspace accounts, including Business Standard and Plus, Enterprise Standard and Plus, as well as customers with a Gemini Education or Gemini Education Premium add-on, and Google One AI Premium subscribers. Users who previously bought the Gemini Business or Gemini Enterprise add-ons before those were discontinued for new sales on January 15, 2025, will also get access.
