My hardware is almost certainly not the problem; I built this PC in 2019 and everything is still working great. I have more than enough ram
For what it's worth FF seems to work just fine with the same extensions on my laptop, which runs Mint. So it's most likely something with my desktop, but I haven't got a clue what.
Wouldn't that be fixed by a fresh install though? I haven't uninstalled anything in the last few days...
Yes, I am. So I figure some of the problems are the same problems that I saw before.
But it's a completely clean install- I made sure all of the old files were completely wiped, even the profiles in /Appdata/
This makes me seriously consider whether my mouse could be the problem; I may buy a new one soon anyways. My mouse sometimes does some WEIRD stuff, it's rather old.
... I'll have to consider this. I don't have a second mouse to use, so I can't test it rn.
I'm using a utechsmart venus for what its worth.
Hmmmm that's a thought, though I'm not sure why my nice monospace font would break FF, it isn't using it. I may try this though, it's worth a shot...
Nope, just Windows Defender, I think other AVs are just as bad as malware.
I've done this; the results are basically random.
It doesn't seem to be any individual plugin. Sometimes disabling one plugin seems to fix the issues for a while, but they come back. Sometimes I'll disable multiple and nothing changes. I've tried different combinations each day this week and haven't seen anything to suggest that it helped.
Like I said, even if I run in safe mode I eventually see problems come up. It's very strange.
NGL I haven't considered this yet; it IS feasible though, I'd just have to make a bootable ISO drive and dig up my product key which is buried... somewhere.
I'll consider doing that if I can't find anything else to fix this but I'd rather not.
Nope, none at all. It's like FF doesn't recognize that it's crashing.
SSD.
I'm running an I9-9900K CPU, a GTX4070TI, and have 32gb of ram. I'm pretty certain it isn't a hardware issue...
