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.

    • Good Bye and thanks for the fish
    • yeah i did some research and it seems they removed (or didn't carry over) the ability to change desktop icon fonts.....hopefully they bring it back for you soon...and yeah it also seems the ability to change the font has also been removed unless you adjust through registry or win aero.    if you haven't already, maybe trying to "adjust cleartype text" may help you. i tried running through it and noticed there were some bold font styles.   welcome (or bye haha) to windows 2025 btw!  
    • That'll be it for my 2018 Mac mini then. There is, of course, OpenCore Legacy Patcher . . .
    • Support cost cutting and nudging people to upgrade for profit. Pure and simple. Nothing as noble as hardware actually becoming "obsolete" about most of the hardware requirements from Apple, Microsoft, or Android companies either. iMac 2017 with AMD running legacy Core still have native GPU support in macOS 15 and run perfectly fine. Doesn't even need any fancy patching outside of the minimum patching needed to get macOS 15 on the system to bypass Apple system requirements aking to running windows 11 on a PC that doesn't match the arbitrary CPU generation requirements that make you bypass them too. You can usually tell if hardware is truly in the realm of "obsolete" if you are having a hard time finding a major Linux distro that'll install on it.
    • >Mozilla's Firefox has been left behind over time in terms of market share, as it has not been able to keep up with Chromium-based browsers in the performance department. I have no problems with Firefox's performance whatsoever. I suspect the reason Firefox is lagging in market share is that average consumers haven't heard of it and are fine with what was installed on their systems.
