Why do Web pages lock up when Firefox is placed on the Taskbar, then re-accessed? Several pages will not display last page viewed.

I have a Firefox implementation where I have as many as 40-50 tabs. I do a lot of researching, including accessing online tutorials, etc. In the past, there has never been a problem accessing all the tabs. More recently, with at least the three latest "updates" this problem has emerged, a problem that didn't exit before. Now I know you have new "Millennial" geniuses on staff. Don't they test their product, like we did in the good old days? Or have they turned your code into spaghetti code, where a change here trying to embellish one thing created ten problems somewhere else? God may forgive them for they know not what they do, we the public doesn't have to. If you can't pull this complexity in line, perhaps we ought to be using another product. I'm truly surprised Firefox has got worse not better with the latest "updates."

Whatdya say?

Firefox is faster than ever with the new Quantum update. This issue is likely caused by the multiprocessing in Firefox, which is a security and performance enhancement.

However, there are some negative performance implications for low-performance systems, especially when running 40-5o tabs (a large load by any standard). You may want to try the solution from this thread to disable Firefox multiprocessing.

Hope this helps.

I have 32 GB RAM, so why would I want to disable multitasking ... you mean .. to make browsing slower? Come on, man! I have to delete and re-task 4 to 5 tabs with critical information that I'm in the process of using daily. You mean your genius engineering team can't fix this? That's what I mean ... probably their bosses don't even comprehend the code like managers did ... back in the day, so to speak. The hubris of it all ....!

HI, what does any of your personal attacks do to explain the issue you are having as wall as what you have tried. Firefox Volunteer Support has nothing to do with the Developers so your comments are just getting in the way of solving the issue as they do not see them.

What version of Win !0 please. Can be found from System --> About if not version 1803 consider updating to it. from Updates & Security or from here : https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10

Can you list the extensions you are using please.

Please Try Firefox Safe Mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:

  • Click the menu button New Fx Menu, click Help Help-29 and select Restart with Add-ons Disabled.

If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:

  • On Windows: Hold the Shift key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
  • On Mac: Hold the option key while starting Firefox.
  • On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox -safe-mode
    (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)

When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".

SafeMode-Fx35

If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems article to find the cause.

To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.

When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.

@CJREID, there is no per say Boss in FF. This is a open source Browser. There is a limit to tabs and since no on is there to see what the hardware setup is no one can be exactly sure what happened at that time either. I have FF on the taskbar quicklink and have no issues reopening and loading those pages be ambient I only have like 5 pages loaded. If you have that many Tabs there is always unforseen issues and without someone being there to see the problem happening. It's like anything the more you have opened the more chances you will have problem especially in a computer environment. Also I have W10x64 Pro 1803 FF60.0.2x64 and 16Gig RAM.

This is simply a suggestion to try. That's what troubleshooting is: trying possible solutions until you find one that works.

Multiprocessing will load and unload content in order to save resources on your system. This could cause delays when switching between tabs, since you are running so many tabs. Multiprocessing was not present in the older versions of Firefox and since you consider the newer updates of Firefox a downgrade in performance, I figured that this could be the cause.

The people who answer questions here, for the most part, are other Firefox users volunteering their time (like me), not Mozilla employees or Firefox developers.

If you want to leave feedback for Firefox developers, you can go to the Firefox Help menu and select Submit Feedback... or use this link. Your feedback gets collected by a team of people who read it and gather data about the most common issues.

Perhaps I should offer my apologies. I sincerely did not know that Firefox was open-source. Nor did I know that your tech support operation is manned by volunteers. Now that DOES explain a lot. May I still conclude that Peter still does not know what Paula is doing, has done, or may do in the future?

That said, let me thank you for working on the Mozilla Firefox project. I've used it for over 10 years and I've always thought it was the best browser around. Perhaps this explains my horror to discover so many apparent issues with the latest releases.

Please share this with your colleagues: I know now that I was outta line with my criticisms. Alas, I'm finding all over the country in corporate banks, corporate health care, corporate telecommunications "applications" with all kinds of errors. Such sites as roku.com or myatt.com recently had "troubleshooting solutions" that were actually incorrect, adding to problems, not fixing them.

So. I jumped the gun with Firefox. I appreciate your time in explaining the facts. I thank you for your efforts. And, once again, I apologize for my unacceptable, insulting language. You folks didn't deserve it.

Sincerely,

Charles J. Reid

Thanks. Now I had to do a few other things since I sent my last message.

First, I appreciate your team accepting my apologies for my rush to judgment. And I absolutely sincerely appreciate your work. I've been there, so to speak.

Second, as for the locked-tab problem, I've noticed that if I re-start Firefox, the problem tab works. However, from time to time, while the tab I was trying to access works on re-start, some other tab become problematic. And this does not depend on the number of tabs. For example, I deleted 8 or 9 tabs, and still ran into the same problem.

As it happens, I have three or four tabs with video tutorials in various stages of completion AND say six tabs with a lot of data, basically message centers that I check every now and then AND four or five "news" sites (like thehill.com) that I have up and may check at any moment during the day. And most of these sites have embedded videos or photos. (I have so many because being a "multitasker" I'm working on several disparate projects.)

So my working session of Firefox is quite data intensive, something that didn't occur to me until I got your last message, and I stopped to think about it. (In the past, while I've had as many as 60 tabs up, most of them have been text-content intensive, e.g., the Guttenberg project site, or some other information site. )

Just thought I'd bring this to your attention, just fyi. Tomorrow, I'll follow the guidance you sent above. And I must say, you folks did a magnificent job in dealing professionally with my rant and trying to help at the same time. I truly appreciate it.
