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.

    • Or, they could really turn the table upside down and rename it in BINARY. 00011001
    • I have tried that registry 'trick' from that video already. It doesn't work at all in Win11 for me   Yes it's a 3rd party app... that I am only using because of Microsoft breaking user customization in Windows 11. So yes... the is a Windows 11 issue. As of now to me, Microsoft has made a huge mistake with this in Windows 11.   The current font option in Windows 11 are terrible. They are just missing. People that want to use their own computer the way they want to, they need to avoid 11.
    • It's been an age since I did desktop support, but here goes: You have an issue with Windows 11, which is fair.  You are using a freeware 3rd party app to make modifications to the default Windows 11.  Since an update, this 3rd party application no longer plays nice with Windows 11.  And this is somehow Windows 11's fault? Sorry, not buying that this is a Windows 11 problem... it's a customization issue that has just appeared, but standard 3rd party support.   Clearly you're upset.  You can't make Windows do anything, just like you can't make MacOS run Explorer or Linux run Nintendo games natively.  And I know people are going to say "sure, it's possible..." but those aren't defining elements of the OS.  You can't have animated backgrounds in Windows 11 natively -- so it's trash amirite??? I did quick searches about changing the default fonts and there are ways to do it, and clearly 3rd party freeware apps can do it (basically my guess is they're making registry changes on your behalf) and clearly they're having issue.   You can make your computer do a lot of things, but sometimes you get what you pay for. Did a quick search and don't see an easy option in Windows 10 either.  Some of these links - ironically - are for Windows 10.  They still apply. Here's a video tutorial of how it can be done without a 3rd party:   Same reference here with a bit more detail: https://www.howtogeek.com/716407/how-to-change-the-default-system-font-on-windows-10/ Once the font is chosen, the size can be changed via personalization from my understanding. Hope this helps.
