Hello, So, update after update in the last two months, it started to loose functionality. First it lost auto fill settings - stored usernames, passwords, etc. And after latest update it stopped to do redirects. By redirects I mean, let say after a successful login the web site should redirect you to a members area. It doesn't do it anymore. To be more clear, it doesn't do this for example: <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;URL=<? echo $something;?>/page.php"> And it's not that I've changed something, just ran the latest update which is currently 48.0.2 Any help is highly appreciated.

Best regards

Hi, It solved the problem, I can even play with addons to see which one caused that behavior, but the thing is that every time I get updates, I'll have to disable some of the addons. And what would be a firefox w/o addons?

hello, can you try to replicate this behaviour when you launch firefox in safe mode once? if not, maybe an addon is interfering here...
