Right click on a tab -> Bookmark all tabs Then prune the tabs down on what you need and what you don't need. Or just keep them you weird horder that uses 1500 tabs you weirdo.

Fangs404 posted:Firefox is crashing/being slow/acting weird/using a lot of memory. How do I fix it? On Saturday, Firefox just started crashing. Sometimes it will crash after 5 mins. of being idle, other times, it will crash when I open it, then load a webpage, and still other times it will go for hours before crashing. I've done everything in the above list. All plugins and extentions are up to date, and I also went through all of my Greasemonkey scripts replacing http with https for the forums here. It's extra weird, because it's only doing it on my desktop, and not my laptop, which I copied my Firefox profile to when I recently clean installed Windows 10 on it. When I did the uninstall-reinstall step, I instead installed the 64-bit version, v44.0.2. My PC is running Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit, SP1.

If you've exhausted that list, it might be a hardware problem. Have you ever run memtest before? Scanned your hard drive for bad sectors?

Both my work computer and home computer (64 bit Win 7 SP1 Ultimate and Professional, respectively) Firefox started crashing yesterday as well. Was there some kind of update?

Hmm, interesting. I just updated both my main PC and laptop to 44.0.2 and it's rock solid but I'm running 8.1 on both.

I think there was some Windows based memory testing tool, but it won't be able to do as thorough test as an offline tester from CD/USB boot can do. Just create a bootable USB stick from Hiren's Boot CD. It will have Memtest+ and harddrive testing tools from several manufacturers among many other tool. It can be useful in all sorts of situations.

I had no end of trouble with late 44 to 45b under Windows 7. It stopped crashing when I moved to 64-bit, but performance took a nosedive and it started to take up huge amounts of RAM. It's running beautifully under Windows 10, better than it had under 7 for a number of releases.

I hadn't used my desktop in a few days. When I opened Firefox, I was met with a bunch of tabs asking to install extensions from my own computer. I also saw that e.g. SALR was disabled, and even after installing the latest beta and restarting Firefox (even though that's unnecessary), it's still marked as disabled. What the hell happened? I haven't had any problems on my laptop.

I haven't had any problems on my laptop. It's possible that for some reason Firefox thought your addons weren't installed by you. Try clicking 'Remove' for an addon affected by this, restart Firefox (to clear out some saved extension information that may be corrupted), then install the addon again and see if that works.

I tried that with some, but still had the problem. A complete re-install of Firefox fixed it, though.

Is there a replacement for Context Search that will work with e10s? I've emailed the developer to see if he plans an update but he just ignores me.

I use X-Notifier for an extension that lets me have like 4 different emails checked, and which makes it easy to open tabs for multiple gmail accounts without having to sign in and out. But the guy hasn't gotten it signed and at some point that's going to be an issue. Is there either a way to sign someone else's XPI yourself, or another extension to replicate the functionality? The way it makes it so you don't have to sign in and out is that it opens tabs with different sets of cookies available.

If it's hosted on AMO it should be automatically signed; otherwise you can submit it to AMO for signing. It looks like it's already there, though?

For a while it was missing from both AMO and the Chrome store because of some issue he had and you could only get updates from his site.

Ahaha, I thought you literally wanted to have uBlock prevent you from looking at dailymail.co.uk. Which should have happened. I'm not sure what you want to have blocked though.

 Looks like this with my default uMatrix and uBlock settings. I'm not sure why anyone would willingly read this trash though. Read fucked around with this message at 23:01 on Feb 22, 2016 |

Must be uMatrix doing the work there, I just reset my filters and it's still showing the ads. The Daily Mail is pure poo poo, but sometimes politicians write in it so I check it, and the other rags, out.

Should I be using uBlock Origin or Ghostery? I don't really know which is better.

This is a huge open door, but uBlock Origin has the massive benefit of blocking ads. Which is something you'll notice. Whereas the benefits of trying to disrupt all the ways you can be tracked are less tangible.

Ghostery just had a huge update that of course turned off all tracking protection by default.

Stop using Ghostery, it's the product of a "market intelligence" company that sells your browsing information to advertisers.You know, spyware.

Firefox's native tracking protection is like Hulkamania - it only runs wild. Try uMatrix. Unlike what the dude who made it implied no it doesn't require a drat maths degree just give it a shot.
