Browser/Email :: Taskbar Middle-click Not Working For Firefox

Sep 11, 2015

I upgraded to Windows 10 a little while ago, and while it has mostly been smooth sailing I have encountered a small glitch.

Middle-clicking on things in the taskbar normally opens a new instance on the corresponding application. This feature works perfectly for everything but Firefox.

I am not sure if it is a setting within Firefox or Windows that is blocking this behavior, or if it is a bug.

I have discovered two workarounds.

1) Open a new Firefox window using the shortcut in the Start Screen.
2) Drag a tab away to create a new window.

Browser/Email :: Gmail And Firefox

Nov 19, 2015

Had many many compatibility problems with windows 10. HP have been brilliant. I have to use firefox now because 10 doesn't like chrome. It doesn't like avg either.

anyway, I recently had a hip replacement and have other medical issues. I desperately need to send a document that i scanned on my phone to the google drive on my new laptop.

I have the same issue with sending myself an email of my personal spreadsheets.

simply put I have gone from vista to 10, I am trying to teach myself. I use firefox now with settings to gmail. I have downloaded adobe file reader, but no matter what i do i cannot email anything using my gmail email. I do not want to use outlook

Browser/Email :: Firefox Keeps Closing

Feb 10, 2016

The last 2 days FF keeps closing after 1-2mins.

I don't even get the crash report now it just closes and upon opening it takes me the restore session.

I have done a fresh install of it deleting all known traces of FF and although better it still closes but now maybe after 7-10 mins.

I'm running Win10 Pro (clean install)

I tried to do a system restore to roll back 3 days but I get an error saying it couldn't complete the restore.

I have done a full system scan with defender that took around 10-12 hours but all came back clear.

I'm using edge for now but really would like to get FF back.

Browser/Email :: Firefox - Open In New Tab?

Jan 7, 2016

Using FF in this forum, Right click on a dropdown item (like Forum Actions, Quick Links) does not have an option to open in new tab, like Chrome for example. But, you can drag/drop the dropdown choice to the New Tab "+" on the open tabs bar, and it will open. Maybe this is old news, just wanted to pass it on..

Browser/Email :: Remove Firefox Search Bar

Dec 14, 2015

I didn't like the Firefox Search Bar. I rarely used it. It takes up valuable real estate that can be used by other ADD-ONS Icons.
I Just do my searches directly in Bing or Google.

To remove the Firefox Search Bar (this actually just moves it and stores it away, you can bring it back),

-Click on the upper right menu icon (three lines).
-Click CUSTOMIZE
-Left Click, Hold and Drag the Firefox Search Bar down to the Additional Tools and Features area. It will be saved there in case you want to bring it back.
-Click EXIT CUSTOMIZE.

The Firefox Search Bar is now gone and the space can be used to add additional ADD-ONS Icons.

Browser/Email :: Firefox Always Slow And Lagging

Oct 7, 2015

I am using Windows 10 Pro X64 official and Mozilla Firefox.

For some reason my Firefox browser is always lagging.

Chrome works fine though.

When I open a new tab, the browser starts lagging, when I open multiple tabs it's lagging a lot.

Click a link -> Start lagging.

Why is this happening? Had the same thing on Windows 7 but the lags seems more in Windows 10.

Browser/Email :: Resize Flash Player Objects In Firefox

Dec 6, 2015

At work I extensively use a Flash-based control panel provided by one of my company's business partners. I typically run Firefox to display it.

I've recently switched to 4K monitor and the panel has become unreadable as the font size is constantly the same as in my previous (1920x1080 resolution), meaning way too small to be easily read in 4K resolution unless using a magnifying glass...

I'm aware of the fact Flash objects are virtually impossible to customize, but noticed a surprising thing when run the panel in Internet Explorer (v. 11.11.10586) - it actually gets resized together with a page and this applies to panel font too! At the same the panel displayed in Firefox is completely immune to any size changes, just other elements (non-Flash) of the page can be increased/decreased.

Browser/Email :: Firefox Rendering Of Certain Google Maps Data Messed Up

Dec 13, 2015

The symptoms below started in the last few days. I've also applied 1511 in the last few days. I can't say for sure whether the effect pre-dates the update or not since I hadn't used Maps much around that time.

Firefox 42.0 now shows the traffic overlay as broken pieces, and for certain broken lines like tunnels and railways it shows junk. This effect is worse with vertically-oriented lines, horizontal ones can look ok.

The image shows Edge on the left and Firefox on the right, showing the same area of Heathrow airport.

Of course this may be due to something else, but I've tried two versions of the graphic drivers (Intel 4600) with no change. I've also flushed the FF cache.

Browser/Email :: Unable To Click On Any Link In Outlook 2003 - Locate Link Browser

Aug 20, 2015

After I upgraded to Windows 10 I am unable to click on any link in Outlook 2003. I get a popup that says "Locate link browser". I searched for a solution and read that I needed to associate it with IExplore.exe. After doing that, now whenever I click a link it opens IExplore to my home page. How I can resolve this error and get it to go to the URL rather than just opening IExplore?

Instructions I found were these but don't seem to apply to Windows 10:

On the desktop, double-click My Computer.On the Tools menu, click Folder Options, and then click the File Types tab.In the Registered File Types list, click URL:HyperText Transfer Protocol, click Advanced, and then click Edit.In the Actions box, type open.In the Application used to perform action box, locate Internet Explorer (Iexplore.exe), and then click Open.In the Application box, type IExplore, and then click OK.

Browser/Email :: Edge Sometimes Doesn't Open When Click It

Dec 10, 2015

Edge on rare occasions does not open? I have it pinned to the taskbar and on very, very rare instances nothing opens. It's a very easy remedy, either reboot or quicker still if I go into taskmanager and kill the edge process. Then if I click on the pinned taskbar for edge it opens just fine and happy browsing.

I must re-iterate replicating the issue is tough because it is quite rare. Happened yesterday and before that a couple weeks ago. So I'm thinking it's just an 'Edge' thing that happens from time to time.
